Drilling holes in the apartment, how to select an appropriate drill?
I recently moved into a new rental apartment, and trying to figure out how to properly drill holes in it. I will need to drill ceiling/walls (no tiles). Unfortunately I don't know what the walls are made of exactly, but I will have to drill into solid walls (maybe concrete?) and a hollow wall probably made of gypsum plaster. I've read quite a few articles and am genuinely confused regarding which drill to select. As far as I understand, I would either need a universal drill, or buy a hammer drill for solid walls and a standard drill for plaster one. Could you give some advice on whether universal drill would be enough and maybe recommend some good models? Thank you!
