Can a hammer drill be used for ordinary twist drill drilling in wood?

Yes, as you can turn the hammer function off. There is a switch on top with selections for using it as a screwgun, for normal drilling, and for hammer drilling in masonry.

Don't have this drill, but standard function is user select drill only, hammer only or drill and hammer. Hammer only is for chipping, hammer and drill is for drilling into tile or concrete with carbide drill bit. In time you will found it useful. Oh hammer is not used for screws or bolts - it's a downward force, not rotational. For that use an impact wrench.

Yes, those bits will work in this screwdriver. The screwdriver comes with a flathead screw bit and a phillipshead screw bit. No. This is a relatively low RPM screwdriver and is not intended for drilling. It may drill holes in thin soft wood with the second set of bits you identified, but I would not expect to have satisfactory performance since it is really a screwdriver, not an electric drill.

Should work. HOWEVER...1 the bit holder is not very good- the bits just dropout. It also has an aluminum sleeve-which won't hold up very well in the rougher hammer drill operation. Dewalt bits that I've had seem to be pretty good. They should take hammer driving as good as any (unless hardened steel is recommended against for hammer drilling. I've had them shatter, softer might be better-these are hardened.) Personally I wouldn't use this bit holder to drive blue concrete screws. Good luck.

long as you have the right bit. It's not a hammer drill but you can drill small holes ect into masonry and all with a masonry bit.

The 3rill is a Drill/Driver/Impact driver, not a hammer drill. It has a 1/4" Hex Shank chuck and I am unaware of any masonry bits that will work with this type of chuck. To answer your question, could you.....probably, should you.....no. I would recommend getting a hammer drill for this purpose. Check out the Rockwell Shop Series hammer drill, it is fairly inexpensive and will do exactly what you need. Rockwell ShopSeries RC3136 7 Amp 1/2-Inch Hammer Drill

YES. There's a ring near the chuck which not only sets the torque, but also clicks the drill into "hammertime"! Love my set. Haven't yet used the impact driver, but my son has one and it is great for driving lag bolts in deck construction. The hammer drill is the only one you'll need for drilling holes, driving screws etc. It worked like a charm when I drilled holes in a brick wall to mount some decorative stuff. I highly recommend this set.

Hi, The tool uses a cutter bit, not a drill per se. You attach it to your regular drill chuck and adjust it to the desired diameter and it will do the job. a 6 in hole in wood shouldn't be a problem. Wear glasses, though...

Absolutely! This hammer drill uses SDS Plus bits only. The bits can go up to 1". Standard drill bits will not work in this drill.

The answer to your question is yes, under certain conditions. The PROXXON 37020 DB 250 MICRO WOODTURNING LATHE is a very light machine and will benefit from being attached to a stable surface. In addition, it is low torque and constructed of light material, and does not do well when wood tuning bits are used on any material are being turned. However, you can achieve this task, if a soft type of wood is used, along with working down the shape with graduated grits of sandpaper. The answer to your question is still yes, just don't use hardwoods and don't get in a hurry with this particular machine. Lastly, this lathe is absolutely perfect for my situation and the folks at MICRO-MARK MARK are very good to work with.

It is a Variable speed to 900 rpm, some other drills go to 2700 rpm for drilling quickly. This is designed for higher torque to drive screws into Wood. Need a Hammer drill for drilling masonry. though this with a Carbide drill would do a passable job. It would be good for driving screw into masonry anchors. Get Faster drill for drilling metal.

Not advisable, however if you're just wanting to drill one hole for something, you can buy a masonry drill bit but they don't last long and it's hard on the drill. It's best to buy a hammer drill if you're going to be doing a lot of concrete/masonry drilling.

Technically you could, but it would be a very slow drill as the turning speed is nowhere near that of a drill. Not recommended for drilling.

I have used it in a cordless impact drill that vibrates a lot, it will loosen up the drill or screw head, but I'm not sure if had it hand tight or used the tightening wrench.. its been a while. I dont own a hammer drill, but I dont see why it wouldn't work.. except for vibration that may loosen up the drill bit.

I have not used these cutters yet, but I have used similar cutters with a hand drill and it works fine. You just want to have the drill as perpendicular as possible to the wood and start the cutting at a lower drill speed. Hope this helps.

This will work great for drilling even long screws into pilot hole in wood - it even comes with a drill bit to drill the pilot holes. It is powerful enough to install many screws in softwoods without predrilling. It should work well for smaller hands. The handle is just a little larger than a hammer or tennis racquet grip and The trigger is more like squeezing the handle than pulling a trigger.
