Hi All,
This weekend I’m going to test and review some BL Milwaukee & Dewalt 18V tools: SDS Rotary Hammer, HT Wrench and Wrench.
Is there anything in particular you’d like to hear about? Apart from trying to bust some big nuts (off old steam engines!!!), and drill some 16mm holes, I suspect they’ll be pretty simple reviews…
Any thoughts?
If you tighten a nut or bolt all the way down with one impact will the other be able to remove it? If like to see that

Thanks Nic. As one is a high-torque heavy duty model, and the other a compact, this won’t be doable. It’s not a comparison, I’m doing three seperate reviews.
Oh, either way it should be interesting to see what you put them through especially on those old steam engines.
The steam engine part is pretty cool with the impact wrenches. With the SDS maybe try the performance in stone and cement/masonry
I’d be interested to see the power for driving lags and drilling with auger bits. Most reviews ignore those aspects and stick with the nuts and bolts of it.

with the HT wrench? Or just the compact wrench?
