Wall chasing ( yeah I know that old chestnut)

[TaffyDuck]

Hi Guys

Its been a while since I was last here but I wonder if you guys can help me.

I`ve tried every wall chasing technique except one. Has anyone used one of these?

I have seen the odd you tube video of similar slotting machines working in those fragile clay bricks they build with in Spain but are these any good on harder stuff like brick?

One of these:

attached to this :
Wet & Dry Vacuum & Blower - Workshop Tools - Power Tools -Tools, Electrical & Plumbing - Wickes

works for me. Little dust, easy to chisel out the slot, quick to use.

I dont know hot hard brick are in america but i think that thing will really struggle with our bricks.

All i used to use was a cheapish diamond bladed wall chaser and a decent vac, when i spent more on the vac than the chaser is when the set up improved. A commerical rated vac is essential.

i find a henry is quite adewquate. gets most of the dust.

I have to add though that I do very little chasing it's mostly timber frame and plasterboard where I live

It was the mechanism I was asking about mate. They are available in 110v and 220V.

Guess its being stuck with the trusty Makita followed with a SDS chisel then sadly.
