Drill for Concrete Work?
Started by msgardenertoyou on June 21, 2024
Yeah, I've used the Craftsman CMCD710C1 before and it worked great! The 20-volt brushless motor provides a good amount of power for concrete work. Also, there's an article that gives an overview of the drill which can be found at Overview of the Craftsman CMCD710C1 Drill.
That sounds interesting! How did you find the battery life when working with concrete?
I had no issues with the battery life while using it on concrete. The 1.5 Ah battery and 20-volt motor provided enough power to get the job done without needing a recharge too often. Plus, the lightweight design made it easier to handle for extended periods.
That's good to hear! One thing I also noticed was that the 15 clutch settings allowed for more precise work when drilling into concrete. It helped me avoid any potential damage or mistakes in my project.
Thanks for the input, guys. The Craftsman CMCD710C1 seems like a solid choice for concrete work. How does its weight compare to other drills you've used?
I haven't personally used it, but based on @andysali13's experience, it sounds like the Craftsman CMCD710C1 is a great option. The 6 lbs weight isn't too heavy, making it comfortable for extended use.
Great! Now I just need to check if there are any discounts available and I might go ahead and buy it. Any advice on where to find good deals?
I found some good deals on this drill at local home improvement stores. Also, you can always check online retailers like Amazon or Home Depot for discounts and special offers.
Awesome! Thanks everyone for the input. Based on your experiences, I think the Craftsman CMCD710C1 could be a great choice for my concrete work needs.
