I've realised I need to use higher torque and sharp bits
I got some straight shank dewalt bits recently that have 3 flats ground into the shank - they’re great in my combi drill for plugs.
I had to drill a concrete lintel though recently and didn’t take my SDS to the job.
Got there in the end but each hole began to feel like a Guantanamo stress position torture.

I think on the off chance I need to do that I'll either rent a big daddy one, or buy another if it's a longer project.
I've also just thought one my neighbour on the other side may well have one. Although an SDS is great, they are big and I can't see it getting much use overall as my combi handles brick pretty well now I've realised I need to use higher torque and sharp bits. But who knows, maybe it'll see more use if it's in the shed.
