Hi sifus! Looking for some advice for the right tool for a drilling holes into Corian (solid surface countertop).
I'm planning to install an undersink filter with a filtered water faucet (the small kind for drinking water), and I need to drill through countertop because the sink I have is undermount, no surface to put the faucet.
Borrowing a friend's Bosch tools, but he insist need rotary hammer, while I think an hammer drill is sufficient because it's more resin compared to quartz.
What is sifu's opinion? Drill or Rotary Hammer?

QUOTE(handyboy @ Apr 18 2024, 05:01 PM) rotary hammer is more suitable in this case..imo and experience QUOTE(Benefon @ Apr 19 2024, 12:18 AM) Solid surface go for normal dril & screw driver only. Can decide bosch or whichever cheaper brand, Bosch 18v GSB185-li or 12v 120-Li Hammer drill like Bosch GBH180-Li good for drilling solid brick wall or RC column. Impact driver can consider too https://my.shp.ee/RrwH5WxQUOTE(ceo684 @ Apr 19 2024, 12:37 AM) Just use drill w/o hammer mode. There is a risk of cracking if you anyhow hammer it. For nicer hole use those diamond tipped bit from CN eg. https://shopee.com.my/VOKTTA-6-8-10-12-14-1...760.19281499735Thanks sifus for the tips. Yes concerned the hammer of a rotary hammer might crack the solid surface (it's a large L shape counter, if crack might get expensive to replace ðŸ˜). Will research further.
