 Waldo, you helped make sure the old one wore out. Lately the top has been losing a layer of metal flaking off every couple of holes. I am afraid the transfer of impact is compromised and ponied up for the new one.

What will you do with the old one?
Become a pecromancer or pecrophiliac?

Clink, I think you should take the old one up some obscure pinnacle, start a hole and leave it there for future climbers to ponder. Instead of stonehenge, we'd then have stonepecker.

What we need is a new program to find all the seams at Pinnacles!

I'll go first...

Left side of Disco wall has an aid line. It starts as a seam.

Well you could hang a disco ball from pecker in a seam in one of the roofs. That is if such a seam exists. Any route with a disco ball  automatically gets 1.75 stars.

When are you going to stop fooling around with inferior hand drilling technology and get a real drill holder?

The Merrick Bayonet is the only way to go.

The Merrick Bayonet + Dammer =  5 minute bolt placements

What kind of time if you also master swinging technique?

Or you use Mr. Annihilator and it's 1 minute.

Oh wait, I'm dreaming again.

I was talking to Tom Davis a couple weeks ago and he was explaining this drill holder that ratcheted, or something like that. It sounded bizarre and it mostly went over my head as to how it worked. I just nodded and said it made total sense to me, which it didn't. Anyways, it was a homemade sounding job that, as he claimed, would get a hole drilled in mere minutes.

Aaron, or anyone else, has Tom ever mentioned this dubious sounding master of all Pinnacles drill holders?
