   Hey CAG,

   I have a slightly smaller Milwaukee hammerdrill. It works great. Basically I use it as a drill, and then sometimes use it as a hammerdrill. Works good enough for that but I would want something bigger to get real production, especially with larger bits in concrete.

   However a buddy who does a lot of core and shell work has one and it works real good. Much heavier and accepts Hiliti type masonry bits.

   Only drawback on this tool is if you want to use it for any other type of drill bits you have to get the chuck adaptor and 1/2" chuck. I don't know how much these cost, but it seemed the price these people are offering is a real steal.

   Also this is a somewhat beefy tool. If you need a "real" hammerdrill" this one will cut the mustard, but if you're going to be using it a bunch just as a drill, this one's a bit of a hefty pig.

   Now, get back to your books. You don't want to be out in the field forever. You're supposed to be the guy who drives up in a huge pickup or SUV, gives a few orders, and then heads back to the office to do his sexitary.

   BE Good,

   > you have to get the chuck adaptor and 1/2" chuck. I don't know how much these cost,

   Bosch has one for about $35.

   I have one! I don't need to use it often but when I have it's done the job with no problems. The 1/2 chuck adapter is another $60? I don't have one of those!

   If you can get one that cheap go for it. You will find things to use it on!
