Tug Posted September 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Yesterday I used my old corded sds drill. I'd forgotten just how good a brushed drill is for throttle control, so smooth at low speeds. Yes, BL drills are powerful and efficient, but they'll never have the low speed control that brushed has. It's possible to make a BL drill with better low speed control, but it gets very pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tug Posted September 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 My new Bosch 36 Volt combi, brushed and bloody good. Comfy to hold and use, plenty of power, surprisingly quiet, superb anti-kickback, well impressed so far. Will try the hammer action tomorrow. https://imgur.com/gallery/WP4vI Bosch 36 Volt combi. https://imgur.com/gallery/WP4vI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put up to 3" nail in the tip and the handle slides and hits the nail in. Sometimes you just can't get a gun or hammer in a gap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
