hi all, beginner diy here...

I am plan to diy the car porch using metal c frames/purlins and batten with a metal deck... my more than 10 year old drill went kaput...

so, i do plan to buy a new one... i already have a corded hammer drill, but i dont think i should use the hammer function for my purpose.. and it's also more than 10 years old... so, maybe its time for something new...

so, would like to ask sifus, asiring sifus and others on suggestion for something with a budget below rm500...

all help is utmost appreciated... thank you guys and girls..

Hi, would like to ask this again...

anyhow, would the bosch 180 Li be okay for this?

Thank you Zot and ceo684

Was thinking of either GSR 180-LI or GSR 18V-50 for general screwdriving work and minor drilling.

For concrete drilling, was thinking of GBH 2-26 DRE or GBH 2-26 DFR.


The metal frame will be mounted to concrete walls and some other drilling stuff to concrete... would need around 38 holes for concrete. so, was planning to get the GSR 180-LI or GSR 18V-50 for minor drilling and screwdriving and either the GBH 2-26 DRE or GBH 2-26 DFR for concrete drilling. Will generally be drilling to a max of 12mm holes in the concrete for the anchor bolts.

These models would be sufficient right? or would there be another better brand out there? basically i choose bosch coz there are the most sold and my current tools are bosch. they did last more than 5 years. or more than 10. was also looking at quaza (or quasa or qaza) for the cheaper price. not sure if its okay though.
