Drill replaced

[dagibbs]

I had my good (Hilti) hammer-drill stolen when my house was broken into, as well as a Makita cordless drill and another (cheaper) one as well. So, today I went to replace the Hilti and found that they had a special on -- so now I have two TE-4A rotary hammer-drills as well as a regular cordless drill.

This weekend... drill, baby, drill!

Why do you need two hammer drills?

[dagibbs]

So that both myself and a friend could be bolting routes at the same time. A few other people have been putting in routes as well.

Ah, I see, you're the team supplies guy!

At work, we tried getting a few boreholes drilled, and they used something like a hammer drill, only with an 8" head. It was pretty loud, then they started drilling, and loud got a new meaning.

Yeah, I'm the team supplies guy.

And, yeah, 8" head -- LOUD.
