Brought back memories of using a Milwaukee 'Hole Hawg' on jobsites. there's a threaded hole in the top of the case intended to accept a length of threaded pipe (3/4" if I remember). The purpose was to put the pipe 'handle in, and brace it against a stud or something. If you didn't and the bit jammed on that beast YOU WOULD GET HURT!Cherryville Chuck wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 10:43 am I couldn't help but wonder as I watched that, what happens if the bit sticks? In a cartoon Wile E Coyote would be holding on for dear life while being rotated like a pinwheel in a strong wind.
that's us....
Yep and it would wind up the cord around the motor before it stopped. What a beast it was, we put a 4' long pipe in the motor so 2 big strong men could hold it.DaninVan wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 11:26 amBrought back memories of using a Milwaukee 'Hole Hawg' on jobsites. there's a threaded hole in the top of the case intended to accept a length of threaded pipe (3/4" if I remember).
