Hi All,
Looking ahead to drilling the remains of the 9" sq wooden fence post out of it's concrete shell, I've been looking about for suitable drill bits.
I think someone posted a link here recently to one of those 'steerable' drills and I wondered how 'tough' they were?
What I was thinking of doing is turning a long (stiff, so it won't whip about) 50cm extension and possibly MIG'ing the drill into a hole bored in the end. If I let the weight of my new 'cheapo' SDS drill (and std chuck) do all the work I hoped I could easily drill a 'gap' across the stub to make it collapse and pull the parts out (I want to keep the concrete 'holes' for the new steel posts).
I'm not sure a speed drill would be good as they don't fare well when there is break-through between holes? A brace_and_bit type bit would be no good at speed and take ages by hand.
Any thoughts please folks?
All the best ..
