I believe that I can ask anything on NSC and get some decent answers so here's a question for all you DIY whizzkids.
I'm trying to put up some window blinds and after 30 minutes of solid drilling I'm making no further inroads into the window lintel, I have a 550W hammer drill. Do I need something more powerful and can I assume that a 700W drill will have more oomph or can I do something with the drill bit? Is there anything else I should be doing. All I'm doing is giving my sore shoulders at the moment.
I know that there are several people who handy with their tools (fnaar, fnaar) on here so I hope someone has some ideas.
