Really nice video, much of what I was hoping for to see. Glad you found a way to rummage through stuff while not having to deal with stuff not associated to a vacation style trip. The jackhammer bit looks like a SDS plus (10mm fitting), you might want to try a SDS max (18mm fitting). Not saying it'll work, but filing/grinding away might be easier and could possibly result in a conversion jig or something like that. Anyways, looks like a really good haul this far!
I'd have bet that demolition hammer pre-dated rotary machines that will drill.. But from a google search it seems it is a roto hammer. Cool. It will be plenty strong for most anything you need to do with it. Modern bits are pretty amazing. Not sure of the hex interface (I have only used SDS Max and SDS Plus) but the handle threads should be a common 3/4" MIP iron pipe thread. So you can buy any short nipple or piece of pipe and thread it in tightly for a handle. I have some vintage (not nearly as old as your stuff) porter cable tools that have broken plastic brush caps and they are unavailable.. I am going to attempt to machine some or source something that will work. Good luck and looking forward to the video
that hammer will blow ur brick wall apart ... 2nd the chisel u have there wont work. the chisels need a lip for the spring to lock over. its how it holds the bits in.
Cool place, nice motorcycles. 11/10 would ride! I love how spacious it is, your dad takes good care of the place.
The little mini mac saw on the bench reminds me of the Mini Mac 10 I had. One of my favorite saws for trimming. Also my loudest saw I used.
that's a beautiful blue cruiser!
Great shop! Cool stuff. I bet you can get an adaptor for the skil bits so that you can use off the shelf SDS bits.
Nice shop I remember back in the day using one of those Rotary hammers anchoring machines in Crescent tool
Thats a dream shop!

You will also need a propane tire for cutting. Some dark sunglasses. Most places try to sell you an undersized tip imo.

Yo, your dad's workshop is sick!

I welded a lip into it, and as for the brick, some sections need blowing out
I spy the CitiCar! :D
Probably a super sds bit
The Red Rooster Inn, did you get any video of it on this trip?
sadly no
What’s the story with the cool little green car ?
nice
Was your dad in this video or who's in the thumbnail because it looks like you but 30 years older I'm so confused by it
