Re: Righ-angled chuck adaptor



I've hired a Makita (mains) right-angled drill before and it makes the
job so much easier. As does auger bits rather than the cheaper
flat-bladed variety I was using beforehand. The twist on the auger bit
hels to pull the drill through whereas with the flat bits you have to
scrape away at the wood.

The power & torque from the Makita right-angled drill was greater than
my regular hammer drill...

HTH,

Tim.

handle the torque of the drill into a hole-cutter which was making a hole
in a joist. The casing broke as the gears tried to make an exit, then spent
5 minutes trying to get my holecutter out of the chuck.
