Will these do holes in bricks? Its just been told most will only do soft blocks and the bricks break the attachments, is that true?
 
Reading the text....
In hard materials such as engineering brick a hard material chisel is available for use in place of the square cutter.

As gcol says for bricks you'll need the hard material set, but they still struggle with engineers blue brick (doesn't everything?). The standard tool is OK and certainly work well in blockwork, soft stone and soft brick, main thing to remember is to let the machine do the work - go at it like an animal and you'll bust the pilot bit.
