Evening all...
On the few occassions I have fitted a kitchen extractor fan the builder has already cut the hole! This time I'm cutting it!
I have a cordless makita SDS which although great I have ruled out as not powerful enough but I am unsure whether to get the correct tool for the job, i.e a core drill or a corded SDS which would be useful for many other things as well as cutting great big holes.
I'd be interested to know if you guys just use your SDS (with clutch) or if you use a core drill? I'm also considering the 'drill lots of holes around the circumference and chisel out' method but I expect that takes much longer and is messy, plus it's always good to get a new tool!
Expect It'll be a 150mm diameter for the fan.
Cheers chaps..
