I have a decent 1000w SDS drill and I need a 110mm core drill to make some ventilation holes in a dual skin brick wall (built in 1900s).
I looked in various building merchants and they are £80 and up, for what I assume is a good quality product.
On ebay you can pick up 50mm and 110mm drills with extensions for about £20 and up (picture below). I realise these aren't very deep and need clearing every inch or so, but has anyone tried the cheap stuff? If I'm going to be sacrificing cut speed and a bit of precision I can probably live with that.
Otherwise, any suggestions on core drill bargains or middle of the road quality kit?
