Minor D-I-Y jobs that according to others "should just take you five minutes" have a tendency to turn into sagas.
Drill four holes in the wall to put up a hat rack.
Said wall is concrete. HARD concrete. 850 watt SDS drill borrowed for the purpose with new bit makes pretty much zero impression, and wnaders all over the shop. Ordinary hammer drill with bullet tip drill bit does the job eventually, after drilling small (4 mm) guide hole with standard masonry tip. Each hole probably took 20-30 minutes of drilling, which won't have endeared me to the neighbours.
Had to drill eight holes to put up cupboards a couple of months ago: Battery powered SDS borrowed for the job ran out of puff after a hole and a half, so borrowed a BIG DeWalt SDS which did those holes like the wall were butter. Unfortunately, couldn't borrow it again (lender was away on hols), so tried to use a standard SDS - which made no impression. Given the battery powered one worked while it had charge, how come the standard wired one didn't?
What on earth was this concrete made of?
(Oh, and minor rant: woodscrews that snap half way into the job, leaving me the job of taking the pieces apart held together by a now headless screw, so I can replace the screw. Screwdriver bits made of butter. This weekend was not a good weekend).
