Thanks for the info Bob and Slurryguy, it's much appreciated. A question about a GFI outlet, is there a GFI that can be plugged in to the end of an extension cord then the drill plugged into this?
>The safest way to use ANY drill (no matter what the case is made out of) when working around water, or wet papercrete is to plug the drill into a GFI or a "Ground Fault Interruptor" wall outlet. Those are the outlets you often see in bathrooms or anywhere electricity is near water. They have the little circuit breaker buttons for "test" and "reset" on them. When a power tool gets wet and becomes a shock hazard, the outlet's internal breaker should trip and shut off the electrical power.
It's simple and cheap to install one GFI outlet of this type in a garage, shop, or other outdoor work area. Best investment you can make if you're mixing papercrete with any type of electric mixer.<
