: SDS drill. You can use it for many things - punching holes thru walls, : knocking bricks out, installing rawlplugs in walls which otherwise are : impervious to being drilled, installing extractor fan vents, digging : channels for cabling, knocking out recesses for sockets and switches. : : And possibly its best redeeming feature is taking tiles off walls! : : PoP
You sound like a dangerous person. PoP, SDS, armed and ready for adventure.
If it is an HP plotter then you should be able to buy a replacement carousel. All you need is the part number - which can be found in the plotter service manual. You might have to buy the service manual of course, which requires a part number.....
From my years as a field service tech at HP I have great respect for their ability to supply parts, some obscure. Everything, but everything, has an HP part number.
The part number is likely to be of the form:
09872-60001
10 digits, with a dash between the groups of 5. The first 5 represent the model number, the second is the unique part number for that model. Beginning with '6' to represent replacement part, if the 2nd digit is a '9' then it defines that it's an exchange assembly (like a motherboard - you have to send the old one back for refurb). A carousel isn't likely to be an exchange.

Nah. I try to be nice to people. But many stories on this newsgroup over recent months suggested that SDS drills are blooming great for taking tiles off of walls - and I'm happy to advise that they are!

haha, I was thinking exactly the same thing this morning, 'cos for my current alcove cupboard project every bit of wood used has been new apart from the shelves themselves, even though I *know* I've got useful wood in the garage.
Yeah. I got mine for a tenner, with coarse and fine wheels. Excellent for resharpening paint scrapers and chisels, if you can work out what angle to stick them in at.
I bought the Homebase Excel SDS drill, which came with some standard bits - the chisel being one of them.

Unless I am mistaken, my wife, who is on holiday in Australia and Tasmania for 5 weeks over the Christmas holidays, has not left me anything to un-wrap on Christmas day. Having said that, I did not expect anything on that day, but I could get a phone call asking me to look in a certain place (some hope), for a pressie :-)

With the usual Christmas chest/throat infection :-(((
The "something" option sounds like the better bet - we could have got together at a pub somewhere to discuss what to buy him..... ;)
But what the heck, we don't need such slim excuses for having a beer anyway.....
