Seen this happen more than once on construction projects. More interesting when they drill into a conduit in which the wire is energized.
We have a Potane brand and it has been excellent. Has the bag roll and cutter.
My wife’s Pilot is AWD. Last year when we had the big ice/snow event I had to lock both axles on my Jeep to climb it and it wasn’t easy. Her Pilot went right up with the computer controlling things….zero spin and no drama. I was very impressed.
When I was in home improvement biz I went to a customer whose hardwood in the kitchen was ruined by a leak in the wall behind the refrigerator. Ended up finding a drywall screw had been driven into the pex when the house was built and took a few years to rust away. The plumber had failed to clip it in the center of the stud.
I love that the Brit’s never throw anything away! Especially cool stuff like this!
Been there and done that
Measured the outside and I forgot to take into account the block width when I measured the inside. I drilled a 3/8 masonry bit right through the service entrance that was feeding a 225 amp box. It never slowed down the new bit in a hammer drill.
I was lucky and didn't hit any wires. A real ohh shit moment
Well before vacuum epoxy treatments. I have made a few mallets ant they have never stood the test of time.
My story is to long, It involved a rotohammer, a new floor safe inside an office, fire sprinkler main, and the shut off 100 yards out at the street ( that we knew of).
Dude getting it done! Fawk OSHA….never heard of her.
If you've never been to Lava Beds NM, it is worth the trip. Aside from all the cool caves to explore, Captain Jacks Stronghold is a maze of lava beds, and caves, that enabled a small unit to hold off a superior sized unit indefinitely. He would not have surrendered, and didn't have to but was convinced by a female relative working with the Blue Coats, under threat of the rest of his tribe's safety.

We lived at Edwards AFB, when my dad worked onthe X15 project. Their part of hte project was to adapt the wing and add the pylon to hold the X-15, and test it. Once that was accomplished, he transferred over the the B-58 when it was brought on base. Sonic booms all the time. Great time and place to be a kid.
First day on a commercial remodel project- my first day with a new outfit-
