Milwaukee 0234-6 1/2 Magnum Hole Shooter Drill

If you need a drill with tourque this is it!!

Strengths: Powerful,easy to hold/control with handle,long power cord

Weaknesses: possibly the trigger

Summary: 2008-07-16 10:26:08 Over the past 2 months that I have owned this drill it has worked flawlessly. While I own 2 other drills (a Dewalt cordless that is my everyday use drill, a high speed corded drill for precise drilling in wood or tile) I purchased this for the power and the low rpms. So far I have used it for mixing mortar and joint compound, as well as driving large lag bolts. It has managed to do each job with ease. It has so much power that it can twist out of your hands if your not careful. The only weakness I have found is difficulty in maintaining a constant speed when using it for mixing. This may just be due to the task though then a problem with the drill. The only thing I think that could make it better would be a speed control dial on the trigger. Overall it is a solid drill that seems like it will last for a long time.

Excellent corded drill

Strengths: Powerful, well built, comfortable to use

Weaknesses: None

Summary: I typically use cordless drills for most of the jobs I do. There are times though when I need the power, torque and run time that a corded drill can provide. This drill provides all of that. The drill is solid and comfortable to use. Use the side handle for extra control. The power cord can be detached and replaced if damaged. With a limited lifetime warranty you can't go wrong.

BUY THIS, and you won't have to buy another

Strengths: Good controller, Powerful, Sturdy and strong, Comfortable grip.

Weaknesses: No as far as now

Summary: No waiting for power charging, this is most reason I choose corded drill instead of cordless.

Plenty of power, more than other brand and models of 5AM drills.

Sturdy made and quality materials.

milwaukee 0234-6 drill is the best

Strengths: very strong very good controllability sturdy

Weaknesses: as far as now, I find no.

Summary: I need a drill for metal work, of course no problem for wood.

I have bought craftsman wireless drill since people saying craftsman tool is number 1. However, in some case it is not. Like this one, milwaukee 0234-6 can beat as many craftsman drills as I know ( I am not a pro ). How? many old men have told their stories, You ask them Or go to amazon review to have some rough concepts about it; Or you go to store to buy one to test, then you will get it;

milwaukee 0234-6 is classical. Classical is old, but not outdated. I like classical Milwaukee 0234-6.

Milwaukee 0234-6 magnum drill motor

Strengths: Everything

Weaknesses: None Noted

Summary: To begin with this drill motor is still manufactured in the United States. Although the packaging has both english and spanish descriptions printed on it, the drill is "American Made". The first time you use it, you'll be pleasently suprised at the quality and shear power of this classic tool (careful!!! it's torque could hurt you if the drill bit binds!!!). I've used a variety of drill motors made by Skil, Makita and Milwaukee. Other than my Milwaukee Hole Hawg, I don't own a drill with this much shear power.
