Another Drill Thread!


I just bought a Bosch 36v Hammer drill thats still in the mail. I was thinking about selling it when i got it and trading it in for a milwaukee v18 lithium hammer drill/impact driver kit. I like how the milwaukee is backwards compatible with batteries. I don't like the plastic chuck on the bosch. Anyone use either of these tools? Thanks for indulging in tool **** with me! I'd post links but they think i might be a spammer.

Re: Another Drill Thread!


My opinion would be to wait until you have received your Bosch and had a play. My reasoning for this is you must have had a reason to buy a 36V monster and it will out perform a 18V any day. As far as the plastic chuck goes I am sure that it is just the casing but the working innards will be of metal. I know many builders and chippies and have never heard of the chuck giving up the ghost on their bosch drills. Maybe that's not what you want to hear but from one tool whore to another, wait until you have had a play
