In reply to krikoman:

questions about drills....

In reply to tom290483:

Post up your question, I'm sure Jim Titt or his brother will know the answer!

In reply to Simon_Sheff:

this could get boring

In reply to Glyno:

Just a bit

In reply to philipivan:

I'm after a contact who works directly for one of said companies and understands a bit about climbing. Its not a technical question i.e. what size battery do I need to drill X bolt holes.

In reply to tom290483: cloak and dagger, you know because you need to know

In reply to ollieollie:

Ha! Nothing particularly earth shattering. Just some ideas that in the long run could benefit the general climbing population. At least those who sport climb anyway......

In reply to tom290483: I've got a TE2 With 3 batteries drill is 2.5 kg so light enough to drill on lead with and batteries are the 1.6 one so can be transported on planes as long as they are packed securely and the terminals are taped with sparky tape, makita is also a good drill, was the one Jim recommended me to get but I got a great deal on the Hilti at the time 3 for 2 batteries and a free drill bit. How many holes depends on the rock, varies from area to area, depth of hole (obviously) and also how well broken in your batteries are and the effieciency of the local electric supply for re charge! Drop me a mail or give me a call on 07930180828 happy to help if I can.

There are more jokes in the pipeline

In reply to abseil: I wouldn't say that chuck!

In reply to tom290483:
Well I know the regional (southern Germany) tech manager for Hilti and he´s a climber, doesn´t know much about bolting routes though!

In reply to tom290483: I know someone who works in the warehouse for hilti, if that's any good.

He drives a forklift too.
