Looks like it could bore another channel tunnel James!  Any chance of a pic of the cutting bits?

For those of you about to embark on installing kms of CAT5e cable, the
following tool may be of interest to you.

It's supposed to take the chore out of cutting back boxes for sockets and
switches.  It claims to cut through most brick and blocks.  Obviously
concrete is no go, and engineering grade bricks will dramatically reduce its
life.  Heavily cavitated bricks also cause problems as the guide rod can
wander off course.

It needs an SDS Plus drill with rotary stop facility, and weighs in at
£84.99 from http://www.screwfix.com/product.phtml?6114

A more detailed picture is available at
http://www.geocities.com/jahoye/images/ebs.jpg

I haven't used it yet as I don't have a rotary stop drill (that's next) so I
can't comment on its performance.  Once I've used it, I'll probably do a
review for Mark's site.

No connections with Screwfix etc......
