Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A community-driven database where users test and report the actual torque or hole-saw capacity of various rotary hammer models in drill mode.
  2. A standardized third-party testing service that publishes rotational torque ratings for multi-function power tools.
  3. An adapter kit that includes a torque-limiting clutch to prevent rotary hammer damage when used with high-resistance bits.
