I’m working around stuff as we live on site I.e everything gets in the (expletive deleted)ing way . If a complete empty room I could probably do 20 holes an hour maybe by pushing the bit in harder and not fannying around .

Hole 10mm . Depth of steel 20mm Probably once going ( I take it steady ) 3 minutes to cut hole . Cleaning up the metal ‘ splinters ‘ ( they go everywhere- 20 mins . Setting up a few minutes . Turning off magnetic when you shouldn’t means shutting down takes 5 seconds . 😁

Yeah , I’ve got a full face mask ( fine with glasses ) but steams up in 1 second . Done the other holes now . Once each is done ; I leave the drill and magnet running then change glasses . Tbh I think even blind folded I know which switch not to touch .

Before anyone asks no where to tie drill to in event of this or power failure . Anyway who wants a 20 kg drill swing into their face .

Near accident … I wear gloves and proper goggles as this drill spits the metal out . I wear glasses and the goggles won’t fit over them . So I drill semi blind …. Decided to turn the drill off but couldn’t see the writing in it which said “ electromagnetic “ . Shit me up a bit when it fell …. 🙄

🙄🙄🙄 we’ve all been there …

Nice and steady with mag drill . Occasional wd40 on tip . No worries

I love drilling holes

Bits I also got from Amazon

Wow ! What timing ! Monday I will be drilling my steel !! Bought from Amazon ; plan to sell it when done . Tested ages ago on 1 hole . Slow and steady no issues .

10s ( or so ) seems about right in my experience. So you can import quite a few ‘ bits ‘ during the day especially if load ( or clouds ) Change frequently…

Almost guaranteed. Hence buy a new set , lose cutter so buy a new set …

Today it’s the turn of …..

Standards ?

So I try more often ? 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙄

Excuse me ! You won’t be around for my global conquest . So eat your pasty , look at the sea , and then (expletive deleted) off

Yes . I do need to populate my new world at some speed ….. First up Nigella , she has two uses ; one is cooking . Then Kylie then ….. ( long list )

All part of my mega plan . Human race destroyed . I then rise out my bunker to dominate the rather empty world with my presence .

For my underground build with parking above this was tricky ( specifically the insulation ) . Think I did 150mm screed with rebar . This sat on vac insulation which in turn sat on 200mm concrete and rebar .

This is what I did . All the refusals , bs etc. It became a full time occupation. At one point I had 130 neighbor reasons to refuse the application. (expletive deleted)

But there’s lots of emotion at a planning meeting . You need the deliberate “ non technical “ side aswell . I was originally going to go technical along with architect . But we decided a dual approach from different aspects was better . On my planning committee as I’ve implied some had very little if any planning knowledge ( f knows how they get on it ) - so you need to appeal to them also .

At my appeal one of the committee members didn’t understand the plans ( wft ! ) . So voted against rather than abstaining- w a n k e r . Lots of neighbors said they would turn up to object and have their 3 minutes . But very few did ; they spoke shite ( how upsetting it was blah blah blah ) . Op must say why he wants it “ longtime dream “ , “ quality build “ , “ we need more self builds “ etc etc I.e milk it . Architect deals with technical merit .

No . At the BS meetings any objecting neighbors will do their sob story . He must do his …..
