Default Bouncing Makita

Working on a ladder today using my 14.4v Mak combi with a 3 a/hr NiMh
battery (which makes it 'kin heavy).

Went to put it into holster thingy on tool belt, didn't get it right & it
plummeted 14' straight down onto a solid concrete floor.

"Oh botheration" I said to myself. Went down the ladder with a sickening
feeling around the wallet area.

Total damage? One small chip on the plastic casing. Drill works 100%
perfectly.

Couldn't believe my luck. Worth buying good gear.
