Have you had a need to remove rock… by blasting the rock?
Have you had a need to drill holes for anchor bolts?
Have you had a need to drill holes for soil nailing?

If you have then you probably thought about acquiring a standalone rock drilling machine or rock drill attachment for your excavator. But the high cost of the drill machine was a deal killer.

Would your business be interested in fabricating a rock drill attachment for your mini, compact or full size excavator?

These rock drill attachments cost around $65,000.00 and up.

You can build one for $10,000.00.

If you could purchase plans;
component drawing blue prints on paper
component drawings in CAD software on a DVD
detailed fabrication instructions
sources and part numbers of components
instructions on how to operate the rock drill
would you be interested?

This is the $60,000.00 question.
For your firm to be able to build in your repair shop, a proven design of a rock drill attachment for an excavator, what would you be willing to pay for the plans and engineering behind it?
