Have 1 from bosch. The velco stick always comeout after get dirty with dust. Cannot stick firmly the sandpaper. Than after few yrs spoil.

No problem.

Been keep in my storeroom for don't no how many yrs this chain saw. When takeout and play, just feel like want to cut people into half. Too much horror movie.

What sander are you having now?
the velco can be changed ma.

Yes, each brand have this chucking drill. Read back previous page in this topic. Even Jinxx cordless makita set is using this chucking.

I prefer the drill type chucking as the drilling more precise.

Those brand I mention is base on my usage experience.

No more sander. Just use hand. Anyway seldom use now.

Another problem is, the center screw that tight the round circular always loose out. Cause it cannot turn but the motor keep running. No more bosch orbiting sander for me.

oh..got this problem even with Bosch.
hum...need to think again.

Maybe rockwell use diferent technology. Try it and let us know here.

of cos other brands have these combi drills.

these hex type is mainly on impact drivers only, cos it is more secure, won't become loose.
cos the impact force is a rotating force turning the bit.
normal drill with no impact driving function wont have a hex head.

it all goes down to the availability of model over here in msia that suits the average DIYer,
in terms of feature n price.

amazon sells way cheaper, do u want to buy from amazon?

over here in msia..
i believe u can't find any cap ayam cordless impact driver?
more over combi drills like the one you are having.

so? next will be bosh n makita 2 most famous brand.

makita makes for pro that needs pro features.
the combi tht is available here is a 4 in 1 with impact drill function.
with a huge 18v batt.
a whole set will cost over 2k+RM...

bosch has one available for the msia market BOSCH GDR 14.4 VLI-MF
its rare u hardly see it in hw shops...
with pro features as well like huge batt.

as u can see it doesn't have torque setting/adjustment like urs.
price converted from online, it is close to 2kRM already...

so for us who want a tool that we can afford and can buy from shops with warranty.
there is only this that u r having..

worx have a few innovative tools tht appeals to DIYers like this transforming jig saw,
this one sure makita doesn't have cos pros dun need it, they can afford to have many tools..
DIYers look for versatility at cost that they can afford...

same kink of orbitual sander.
No make me wander.....should I or Should I not.
Actually I also can use the 1998 carefour drill for this task. I have the velco pad already.
so maybe save the paper for other tools.

Ha, the drill now have 1 more task.
from hand drill to drill press, now sander, maybe later a lathes.

Orbiting sander can do job faster. The sanding cover larger area. Because the way it turn like orbit.

The bosch that I use have a dust tray behind. Which will collect the dust while sanding.

o.k. let me take some pic, so show mine also.

you need to DIY to attach to your vacuum cleaner.

Maybe u should open a new topic to discus other power tools, there is non atm. Don't hv to b specific , jz for all power tools, ur prob wit planer can b solved diy.

from the video, it seems quite good to me.
Mine like a toy now.

I thought hilti and hitachi is different separate entity?

hilti is frm liechtenstein
hitachi of cos japang....

he is talking bout the makita set lct302w available in amazon for 157.99USD..
of cos it is using lit-ion, u can see it from the pic posted...
now all tools are using lit-ion, except some lower end ones..
ur previous skil is using ni-cad it is huge the batt thts y very heavy...

there is alot of info posted earlier.. if u read all frm page one.
u should go look for the makita torsion screw bit...

I m not sure is it separate entity. But I read somewhere Hilti short form for Hitachi tools. I might be wrong.

Anyway, Hilti is 1 hell of a good product. They have been in power tools for freaking longtime.

My uncle have a 750w Hilti impact drill which is 30yrs old. Still in good condition. Sometime I borrow from him when my 450w bosch impact drill cannot penetrate the wall. Specially those concrete wall.

I have a Hilti bench drilling pass it down from my parent keep in the store room. It is 40yrs+ old. Still running good. Freaking heavy. But really stable.

I point out to Jinxx makita cordless set (follow my link than scroll down to jinxx new toy). He brought it for rm750+ with a nice casing, 2set of cordless drill and a torch light. It is Lion battery.

Cordless drill shouldn't be cost that high. Given it have limited power and usage. Average range rm300-400.

For rm670, I will get a corded makita or bosch 750w rotary impact drill. Which can do far more job and demolition. You can read at bahathir thread power tools.

Buying cordless drill must makesure is Lit-ion battery already. No more nicad. Lit ion give more power and charge faster.
