Huh? Are you looking for drill bits or drills with 2 different size chucks? Worst case scenario, buy the drill at the hardware store and then return it when you're done with it if you truly don't need a drill. I'd lend you one of mine but I'm doing a lot of work in the house and need them all (that and I don't want to use any of them with saltwater applications as they're nice drills for the most part).

thanx for the advice Dave. I think im gonna head to acehardware to buy one then return it. What kind of drill should i use for drilling 3/4" and 1/2" on the rock?

I would get a corded drill, any kind should be fine as long as it is not a cheap wimpy one. I would avoid battery powered and you don't want a hammer drill for this application.

Please don't do this. I am so tired of buying stuff at the hardware store, and then getting it home to find it damaged or parts missing. Just buy a drill. They are not that expensive, and very handy to have around.

i will try to buy a cheap one. do i have to buy seperate drill for 3/8 and 1/2 or i can buy one and switch drill bit?

Hung,

 

The drill bits are sold separately, sometime in packs. I think for that size bit, you will need to buy the bits by themselves. As for the drill, a corded one is really cheap nowaday so you can grab one easily.

agreed. if you don't need one rent one. Home depot rents tools all the time.
