[Towertalk] SDS vs SDS plus vs SDS MAX vs Spline Hammerdrill

[Mark]

Go to http://www.harborfreight.com/   --- right now, there is a special on
the home page for a $29.95 hammer drill ... else, do search on the site for
SDS   you will be amazed how much you can save!  I am still reading and
saving the info about the hammer drill, so I can put together a synopsis at
the end ... I have a pretty good idea right now on what to do, $$ and safety
wise.. 73 --- Mark, AA6DX
