Makita HR2810  cost me MYR640, but compared to other 'well known' brands with similar specs, it might be the cheapest.
*
thats quite reasonable...

does it have a "hammer-only" aka chiseling function ?

cause bosch with 800w with 3j hammering cost abt 800 bux..

http://www.makita.com.sg/products_details....mID=60&typeID=2

from here seems like your is the same only the weight is different abt 1kg..

Actually, I got Makita brand 5 pieces SDS plus drill bit set (6, 6.5, 8, 10, 12 mm) FREE, when I bought the rotary hammer. smile.gif It is more than enough because, I only use 6mm for most of the wall anchoring.

I also bought flat chisel and bull-point for breaking and minor demolition. smile.gif

BTW, I am not a contractor, so, my tool collection is simple. smile.gif

See it for yourself. smile.gif

TQ

Oya, if you cannot afford to buy a decent rotary hammer, you can try to 'RENT' it from hardware store.
*
yeah but not all hardware store do rental,

and price wise not that economical... unless u can rent a 1k to 2k tool ..

for a tool worth 600/700 better just buy it outright...

Bosch GBH2-26.. An awesome rotary hammer., good chooice.  Hope you can give a review about it later. smile.gif

1) Small combination L Squre with spirit level. Nice to have, if you want a 'perfectly' leeled fixings. No more guessing. Bought at ACE Hardware Mines.

My wishlis
1) 16 and 24 mm Zentro, 4 cutters SDS+ drill bits. I don't know why I want that big sized drill bits, but who know, it might come handy in future.
2) Goatskin gloves...I found a pair at ACE Hardware@Mines, smile.gif

Hope others also can share their experiences too. smile.gif
Thank you.

L sq with spirit hmm you mentioned leeded fixing meaning ??

curious how does it help with leeded fixing..

hmm my wishlist is diamond tip dry coring bits smile.gif lol

did you try your bullpoint on your concrete block and see how fast you can break it ? lol

But, if you are installing curtain rails or hanging pciture frames with 2 or more anchors,  then a leveler is very handy to make them leveled. smile.gif

Yeah, the laser leveler or ranger finder are nice to have tools, but, the PRICE keep me some distance away. It just too costly for DIYer like me. smile.gif

i've seen some china laser leveler that cost less than 100 bux.. around...

seems like

cthardware is having promo for

bosch gbh 2-26 dfr

http://cthardware.com/gbh-2-26-dfr-professional.html

seems quite worth while

Got fed up with my ancient B&D impact drill
so I went out and bought myself a Makita
rotary hammer 2740 with 3 mode operation,
came with 5 bits plus regular chuck.

how much did it cost you ? u got it from the shop that ts recommended/bought his's from ?

QUOTE(weikee @ Oct 20 2011, 05:57 PM)
I am thinking of SKIL 1715, 550w, and cheap. Wonder if that will be a better tool to replace my old hammer drill.

i like the design of it very "modern" smile.gif

@bahathir

want to check with you, do you know how to quantify the feel of the impact energy rating ?

----

price i stated is the lowest i could find/see

SKIL 1715 , 550 watt, Impact 1.5 J , MYR ????
Makita HR2470 , 780watt, Impact 2.7J , MYR 500
Makita HR2810 , 800watt, Impact 2.7J, MYR ???
Bosch GBH2-26 DFR , 800watt, Impact 3.0J , MYR 750

seems like 2470 gives the best bang for the bucks spent vs performance

Did not see Makita, only wide range of bosch and small range of skil.

Now i just need to know how strong is 1.5J, before buying 1715.
*
hahaha i also want to know how does one quantify the energy rating of 1.5J to 2.7J for makita with the bosch 3J

CODE
Joule - It is equal to the energy expended (or work done) in applying a force of one newton through a distance of one metre (1 newton metre or N·m),

Newton -; it is equal to the amount of net force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.


google is not helpinggggg

Wondering how our local builders do the bathroom fittings.... The holes on 'soft' tiles are not smooth and sometime it's just ugly. I can drill holes better and neat than that. Yeah, they did sloppy jobs due to time constraint, in addition to working with very limited tools/resources.
*
yeah.. they are doing it as a business... so faster finish move nex job = more money..

maybe that the main reason i DIY.. cause of the "hand-work" of now days very very bad..

edit : got my makita HR 2470 , thanks to "ride00" for arranging the good deal smile.gif appreciate it smile.gif

Added on October 26, 2011, 10:45 pmsince sds plus bits needs some grease for the chuck
