Hi,

Anyone with experience in rotary buffer (eg Makita 9227C/9237C)?

I got a few 7" polishing pads and compounding pads. wondering whether I should get a SKIL for RM299 or so, or midrange Hitachi, or bite the bullet for Makita.

Besides polishing/compounding work, is it suitable to be used as a sander for wood?

Usually what size of drill bit we need to use if say i want to install curtain? TQ
*
Usually 5-6mm (see your wood plug or plastic plug size), also need to make sure your screw (usually #8 dia) can fit the wood plug.

Can't find the exact spec sheet for the SHR263KA.
Generally whichever got the higher joule (J) number is better.

yup i saw this video, thatz y wanna know what is a reasonable drill to do the job, this video cordless is underpower for the job.

he is using (no brand) 14.4v with 550rpm, so i guess bosch 18v - 1700 rpm can do the job smoothly?
*
Should be OK. For large diameter holes, may need to play with 1st gear to score the metal first then drill again with 2nd gear?

From https://www.ruko.de/en/blog/five-features-of-a-step-drill

Is it correct to interpret the rpm as the useful rpm range for a particular hole size?

Tested Step Drill bit, not very impressive, for small holes like less than 20mm ok la, for bigger holes like 35mm, it will take time, so after doing more research, i wasted another RM 80 to get carbide hole cutter. First time test on my most expensive and thick stainless steel sink, job done within 1 minute.

THe most time consuming part is cleaning the sink without scratching it. Dontt understand why some plumbers claim it is a difficult or risky thing to open a tap hole on sink... my worker is able to do it with his first try smile.gif

Ofcoz u also need the boss to invest on a good drill and drill bit smile.gif ahha. Once again, i do not sell drills just to share how powerful bosch is and dont waste time on cheap drills online if u wanna do jobs that require a little power.

Model used in this video Bosch GSB180LI


*
Thanks for sharing! It was interesting to note it can be done within a minute. I assume the bit used in the video was for 35mm hole size?

Anyone here using Milwaukee Power Tools? I'm guessing it must be a recent entry into the market.

Any feedback? Seems mostly China rather than US made.

Seems lasting enough for trade use. My grille installer (threekim) guys were using Milwaukee cordless drill smile.gif

Which model to buy if do simple screw drilling & hanging clock etc?

It depends on what type of wall you want to drill thru.
Brick wall, or wooden door, any normal impact drill can already.
Concrete/RC wall, recommend to buy (or rent) a rotary hammer.

Impact drill u mean GSB model? 12v or 18v? I just occasionally want to drill brick wall & wooden door. I plan to buy cordless drill.
*
GSB180LI should be sufficient for the needs. That being said, 18V is more common (if im not mistaken) as most trades people use 18V.

yea.. i dare not to use hammer mode because will break the tile. Tried high speed still cant go in.

Ok. i will go get the tile bit and try again. Thanks all =)
*
Get the tile bit (normal one will do, no need diamond tip). Drill slowly for it to work well. If u drill fast, it only polishes the hole you're trying to create in the tile and blunts your bit.

Morning, may I have some comments from users of Bosch GSB 180-Li?

My current corded drill is almost spoilt, the bearing is tight. I'm considering a cordless drill but not too expensive one. Will only use it occasionally for own home DIY, like 10 times a year  sweat.gif 

My concerns is about the concrete drilling capacity, as once or twice I need to make a hole at the beam to hang something. I understand that this GSB is not meant for concrete drilling, but can it still get the work done, even at a slow speed? I'm fine with it as long as I can make a few 6mm holes with it smile.gif

Thanks

Since you will not be using it like a contractor (i.e new shoplot WITHOUT electric supply), as at home you already have power, I would recommend to go for wired rotary hammer.

if price is a concern, one just go for the Stanley rotary hammer
If looking for good tool take either the bosch 2-24 or makita HR2470. It certainly cuts into my concrete walls without issue. You can try shopping around for the barebones unit then add in SDS bit 6mm for concrete drilling, and maybe a chuck adapter so u can use back your old bits for wood/steel

guys, bosch gbh2-24 & gbh2-26, wat is different these 2 model?  saw their spec quite similar...

Depends on ur usage. If ur usage is just to put 6mm wood plugs or sleeve anchors and never need to chisel much then 2-24 will suffice. If u heavy duty contractor as ur day job then buy bigger ones brows.gif

No need as powerful as this GBH 2-26 or 2-24 will be adequate I believe. House wall is just brick and cement plaster, not concrete like post and beam.

Just ordered a GSB 1300 but only to notice from the picture that it doesn't come with the speed adjustment knob.  May I know is it still possible to control the drilling speed? Else might need to cancel the order and get a GSB 16 RE instead.

Thanks
*
Apparently, the speed is controlled by how much u pull the trigger button. Variable speed.
Else if you think you will drill walls alot, go for rotary hammer terus lah. RM415 only. https://shopee.com.my/Bosch-GBH-2-24-DRE-Pr...8956.1907651942

I've got an old 350W bosch drill that I kinda retired because the new rotary I got (2-24) was so much easier to use (2 handle) and powerful enough even for concrete drilling.
