sds chiselling out sockets
Hello,
I used to use angle grinders and wall chasers to make holes for electrical sockets but read here about using an sds drill as a chisel. I have found that as far as production of dust is concerned, chiseling is the way to go. However, how do you limit the depth? I found the drill got carried away with itself and would have quite happily punched through the wall rather than stop after 35mm! Is there a trick to this? Thanks, Stephen. PS I can't really justify buying the special £50 attachment for once-in-a-blue-moon socket fixing. |
