[Killy Bing]

I think someone at axminster must be flipping mad!!!

makita sds max for £200!!!

Makita HR3541FC SDS Max Demolition Hammer Drill - SDS+ Hammer Drills - SDS+ Drills - Drills, Drivers & Screwdrivers - Power Tools | Axminster.co.uk

Will drill 35mm in concrete

 

[Masood]

Do you know if SDS Plus bits are compatible with SDS Max drills?

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

I've got the older model of this (no light) fantastic drill, can be a bit big for some jobs but eats through everything!
even cored upto 127mm with no problems.

 

[Killy Bing]

You need an adaptor but it makes it that much bigger

DeWalt SDS Max to SDS Plus Adaptor : Tooled-Up.com

to be honest with an sds max its mainly for chiselling and large drill bits.

or drilling into something seriously tough

Cheers Killy I'm reserving mine in sitting bourse NOW!!!

 

[gasmanrob]

It says 199 inc vat but just tried to order one and it ends up at £289

 

[Howsie]

Exactly. Pricing error. It's almost £100 too cheap.

 

[Killy Bing]

Damnit.....

got an email through and everything.

ring em up for it!

 

[Killy Bing]

Actually, i would screenshot the price, tweet, email, buy it, take it away, and demand a refund for the extra charge......

 

[Howsie]

Keep quiet and see what turns up. That's what I'd do.

 

[Killy Bing]

Actually book it for delivery!!

its still at 200 then

 

[gasmanrob]

Ok just tried again and it's back at 199

 

[gasmanrob]

Also not available in 110v

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Is it 240v or will I need a 110 pack?

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Just read gasman, so plug her in! Ordering now. It's cheap.

 

[gasmanrob]

Right I have just called to check if this is available in 110v and it is but it will cost £500!!!!!!!!!

the £199 is a genuine price as it is end of line. Mine is being delivered Monday put it on plastic it's a done deal!

For a £300 saving I'll gladly carry a 230v extension lead for this 1 item!

this couldn't have turned up at a better time as my baby chisel drill blew up yesterday

 

[gasmanrob]

Think if you order 1 Killy needs a thanks! Nice find

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Just ordered mine. Don't know when or where I'll use it but it is cheap, looked at other places and they want up to £450 odd for one. Thanks for this post. Just gotta tell the wife!! I'll buy her some chow mein to soften the blow! Yes, I'm cheap (&tight).

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Just recommended it to my mate also. He likes Makita.

By the way, how did you come across it?

 

[Killy Bing]

Twitter !!

btw guys you know these take SDS max bits? Different shank to the regular sds plus drills

 

[iain85]

Awesome, anywhere to get cheap bits for it?

 

[iain85]

My order went through fine also! Yipee... Tool ****

 

[iain85]

How come the word 'pawn' with an o instead of an a is blanked out?

 

[Plumbstar Tom]

yep sounds like it is a genuine deal as it seem to be a discontinued model, bargain price

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Mine has been dispatched. Being delivered by FedEx. Free delivery option also so that's a good deal as well. I'll let you know when it's arrived as I'll be demolishing 'many things'!

 

[Killy Bing]

Talked myself out of getting one.....

 

[Masood]

Talked myself out of getting one.....

Why?????

It's a cracking machine at a ridiculous price. I'm replacing my old Titan which is a similar beast in concept but very much the poor relative in terms of performance. The clutch keeps snatching on it and it damn near rips your arm off when it does! It's spun and smacked me in the face a couple of times as well...

Thanks for the heads-up Killy!

 

[stratplus]

Just ordered one too. Thanks Killy!! ))

 

[Killy Bing]

Screw it

 

[stratplus]

Just looked up sds max drill bits.......not cheap are they!
