OT - hammer drill newbie question
I was given a box of some no-name hand tools by a well-meaning friend.
Among the tools is a no-name drill that is supposed to be both a regular and hammer drill -- just press a button one way or the other. I've long known of hammer drills but have never seen one in action. I cannot see a difference between the two settings -- maybe just me. Does a hammer drill sort of vibrate a little when drilling through masonry or is the hammering really obvious? Do you actually have to be driling with real pressure against masonry to detect the hammering? (Against wood it seemed little more than the chuck being off-center.) I will have to do some drilling into my brick wall in the spring, so a working version would be helpful. Advice appreciated. TIA. -- Igor |
