[Jas0n7]

just wondering how strong those aero bricks are now

very! and if you try to chase them with a hammer they shatter

Dust what dust , i use a sparkey dual blade with a commercial henry vac and its brilliant i even use it to do the back boxessaves so much time and you can get the perfect back box cuts , and very little dust , ive just done a rewire and there was so little dust and what dust was caused by chasing the back box out after , use dust sheets clean the filters of the vac after every chase then theres no problem , if youve never tried it on back boxes do i even cut out singles with it too ,plumb up the chase you want with a level draw 2 lines capping width and cut out down the lines a perfect cut ,was complimented on the chases we did .... by a plumber must have been good lol

 

[nickblake]

Been there and done that lol.

This is the angle grinder attachment pretty much the same level of dust extraction you get with the chaser, I use the single bladed grinder set up for cutting the back boxes out.

If only their kit was a little cheaper.

Not a chance of been Spanish the safety goggles and hard hat give it away, but on a more serious note you cant run cables diagnally here it would not pass ..........yes we do have rules HONEST

The Clarke one looks very similar to the aldi version

We'd all love Hilti gear, but can't justify the cost at this moment in time

Well I take it all back lol.

Hilti all the way pays for itself in 10 working days if you compare how much it costs to rent

 

[eskimo39]

How much would a chaser and dust extractor from Hilti cost? I have been using a makita with a henry hoover but am wanting to upgrade as it still puts out a little dust. Can't find a Hilti price anywhere.

Close to £1200 new, ebay sometimes has recon gear on there which is reasonable.

 

[pennywise]

Machine on it's own is 945.94, matching vac with 110 outlet 469.39 110 3-5kva tranny with a 32amp outlet 150-60. Good deals on ebay just watch out for stuff that doesn't look like it's ex rental.

Cheers guys, might just stick with little old Henry until a deal shows up on eBay.
