Chasing out walls...

[entech]

Ok then lads, who uses what tools to carry out the wall chasing we all know and love....:63:

 

[MDJ]

I use a builder to do my chasing haha, I have no idea what he uses, he just rings me when it's all done.

I've used a few. Surprising I found the metabo the best. With Bosch diamond blades in it.

 

[kingeri]

Various chisels...specifically scutch chisel, hammer, drill, vacuum cleaner, sometimes wall chaser.....oh, and of course elbow grease.....

 

[dim_bulb]

Bosch 36v with rotostop or if you're customer has bad eyesight bit of trunking

 

[Deleted member 9648]

Chasing machine...2 parallel diamond discs cut a slot and you just break out the middle......neat and next to no dust with the vacuum cleaner attatched.

I normally only use a scutch chisel, sometimes use the 36v Bosch SDS but I prefer the control of the scutch chisel.

Erbauer chaser attached to the henry,

then either scutch the middle or sds with a chisel bit.

 

[Rappid]

Erbauer Chaser and Bosch Gas15, then remove the middle with SDS scutch or SDS chisel then finish off with scutch chisel.

I've had the fortunate experience of having played with quite a few chasers. Had a metabo one ( basically a grinder with 2discs and a 50mm spacer between them). It wasn't great, far too much stoor. Had a few variations of them on different sites. The one I'm using the now is the bees knees. A hilti se20 with a hilti vcd50 vacuum are great. When chasing I don't even need to wear a dust mask. Bad point - Tends to trip the trany thermal cut out if using for more than like 20mins so we have to sometimes use 2 tranys. Very expensive to buy tho but you get what you pay for. And for channeling the brick out I've got a 110v Bosch multi drill or a 230v version with a50mm bit and a 70mm bit for back boxes

With out a doubt the Hilti twin diamond blade wall chaser with the dust extractor is the best chasing tool I have ever used, expensive but wipes the floor with any off the other wall chasers I have used, mine got nicked along with my van, actually phoned hss hire today to enquire about one, £110 a day, even dick Turpin wore a mask

 

[Stroppy]

Hilti double disc SE20 stuck to a hoover. With decent blades it goes like a hot knife through butter, even in our Guernsey concrete blocks made of granite chippings! Adjustable width and depth makes it easy, and whack the bits out with an SDS chisel bit.

 

[Sparky_Steve]

The Hilti is an awesome bit of kit I also picked up a VC20U vacuum and combined they really are dustless
