Purchase Factory-Reconditioned Milwaukee 2611-84 18V Cordless M18 High Performance Hammer Drill Kit


This is by far the best drill I've used. In the past I've used Hitachi, Dewalt, Rigid, Porter Cable(worst drill there is), and Mikita. But from now on I'm going with Milwaulkie. Especially this drill. The power is unmatched to anything I've owned. And the fact that it recon. scared me a little. Not to mention the risk of ordering online. But I have to admitt I'm impressed with the preformance of this drill. When they mean high preformance, they mean it. I use this drill every day. The batteries last long. The torque is great. I'll never go back to another brand.Get more detail about Factory-Reconditioned Milwaukee 2611-84 18V Cordless M18 High Performance Hammer Drill Kit.

Order Factory-Reconditioned DEWALT DW511R Heavy-Duty 6.7 Amp 1/2-Inch VSR Single Speed Hammer Drill


I had tried using a 22 caliber nailer and my concrete was not being cooperative. I purchased this remanufactured Dewalt and have been VERY pleased.
For putting Tap-Cons in concrete it is absolutely perfect. If I were boring 3/4" or 1" holes in concrete all day, I'm sure I'd be better off with a heavier duty drill, but for small to medium hammer-drill duties, this is a wonderful tool, and I own it for what it would have cost me to rent one for 2 or 3 days. This works much better b/c often I only need one or two holes at a time. No regrets with this purchase.Get more detail about Factory-Reconditioned DEWALT DW511R Heavy-Duty 6.7 Amp 1/2-Inch VSR Single Speed Hammer Drill.

Milwaukee 3107-6 7.0 Amp 1/2-Inch Right Angle Drill with D-Handle


Every electrician I worked for had one of these and they are a great tool. I set the right angle drive head so it is at the "high" speed setting, the 3002 might have been the better call since it is a bit faster but I opted for the higher capacity drill. I was considering the hole hawg or super hawg but couldn't justify the extra weight, and the head on the 3107 is a bit smaller and slower speed overall than the super hawg and a lot smaller than the standard hole hawg. I'm not roughing in new houses every day or else one of the heavier tools might have been a better call (in which case I'd have opted for the makita DA4031). The reviews comparing the milwaukee 3107 to the comparable makita unit all pointed to the makita being slightly superior (easier to remove the chuck & to change the right angle drive unit, quieter operation, higher speed, reversing switch in a better location), regardless of all the pluses for the makita I opted for the milwaukee 3107 kit. I have extensive use with the milwaukee and know it is a great tool and long lasting, also the 5year warranty is a big plus over makita's 3year. In 2007 I jumped ship from milwaukee and bought a cordless LXT600 set from makita. While the tools are designed very well and have a lot of cool innovations that seemed to take milwaukee years to follow (LEDs for illumination), I had many annoying problems with them and a half dozen returns back to makita (sticking chucks, gear boxes stripped out, charger fan, sawzall recip mechanism), at that point I'd be using my trusty 14.4v milwaukee cordless hammerdrill to fill in the gaps.

So after all the bs I had to deal with the makita tools I decided to return to milwaukee, and I will do so if I end up replacing my current cordless set, but that won't be for several more years. The 3107 might not be as well designed a tool as the makita unit but it's a super solid traditional performer and I'm sure it won't disappoint, and it has a 5year warranty. I searched for reviews, real ones as opposed to bogus blatant endorsements, or weekenders and only found one where a plumber in CO had reviewed a bunch and it seemed legit. The blow molded case is a bummer for bit storage to fix it and make it useful you have to cut a hole in the plastic bridging the lower left & right "pockets".Get more detail about Milwaukee 3107-6 7.0 Amp 1/2-Inch Right Angle Drill with D-Handle.

Makita DA312DWD 12-Volt 3/8-Inch Cordless Angle Drill Kit Top Quality


As the Contractor, doing kitchen cabinet installation and refacing, I bought this Angle Drill as a subsidiary tool for hard to reach places and narrow opening door installation. This Drill is good to drill the holes, but it's very hard to use it as the screw driver, since it is very hard to control the driving speed. The Makita manufacturer should add 2-speed switch to this Drill-Driver as Dewalt did.Get more detail about Makita DA312DWD 12-Volt 3/8-Inch Cordless Angle Drill Kit.
