Re: back to basics - laying cables



This causes huge amounts of dust, you can't see, and it takes ages to
settle. I did it for one of the runs in my office (an empty room), and
decided to do the rest manually. I'd definitely recommend an SDS with
rotostop plus the chasing tools. Screwfix to a good set (search for
'chisel'). Even using these with a hammer is better than a grinder, I found.
And SDS/rotostop drills are not too expensive these days (a man can never
have too many power tools I say).
