What is the bottom part of a pillar drill called?
It depends on what is meant by "bottom part" - does this refer to the entire machine, or the drill bit? See the related link below for a labelled diagram of a pillar drill.
What is the difference between rotary and tropical rotary compressors?

Can you use a rotary hammer drill bit in a hammer drill?
If it fits in the chuck straight, yes you can use it. It will be much more effective in a rotary hammer drill though.
What is the purpose the collar clamp?
a clamp placed tightly around a drill collar that is suspended in the rotary table by drill collar slips.
What is the purpose of the collar clamp?

How do you connect drill bit on durabuilt electronic rotary tool as a drill?
There is a little button on the drill nearest the tip, where the bit goes, that must be depressed as you turn the very tip counter clockwise. This works whether the drill is plugged in or not.
How do you cut a hole in clay tile?
With a high-speed drill or rotary tool - carbide or diamond bit.
What is a good grinder or Drill bit for cleaning tiles?
Grinders and drills are not for cleaning tiles. At the most aggressive level you may want a rotary wire brush to fit in your drill.
When drilling Cotswold stone walls what drill and bit do you need?
That's hard stone, don't even bother with a regular drill ! -You need a Hilti or a large Bosch rotary hammer drill with masonry bit that fits it. You can rent these at many stores if you don't think it's worth buying.
What drill bit is used to drill holes in gemstones such as quartz agate or green tourmaline?
A hollow diamond drill bit, with lots of water, cutting slowly, will do the job. Ideally in a drill press of some kind instead of freehand. Diamond bits in rotary tools like Foredom or Dremel may do it, if it's suitable to use them with lots of water.
What is the purpose of using a drill guide?
A drill guide is used to make an accurate hole when not using an drill press. When one needs to use a handheld drill on a project, the drill guide will keep the drill bit straight and accurate.
What are the functions of the helical grooves on the twist drill bit?
The purpose of a twist drill bit is to drill holes in wood, plastics and some metals.
What is the difference between rotary drill and hammer drill?
The hammer drill vibrates in and out very fast to make masonry drilling much easier. Rotary hammers are drills with a piston on the inside which is operated by the motor and gears. When the motor turns, it moves a gear, which then moves a rod. The rod hits a hammer mechanism which transfers the strike force into the rotary hammer bit. All of this happens very rapidly. Because there is a piston being struck, the force of the blow against the bit is much harder than that of a hammer drill. Hammer drills have a motor that turns a splined gear type mechanism inside the tool. These splined gears are meshed together and hit against each other creating a vibrating action that is transferred to the drill chuck and bit. The hammering is rapid, but the force is only a fraction of that delivered by a rotary hammer. The primary use for the rotary hammer is to drill holes (from 1/4" to 2" in diameter) in hard concrete using a solid bit. It's also used for light chipping. The primary use for the hammer drill is to drill holes (from 3/16" to 7/8" in diameter) in masonry or brick. It's also used as a heavy-duty drill motor for standard drilling. Typically, a hammer drill has a chuck and uses bits that have straight shanks. Most rotary hammers use bits that have either slots and grooves in the shank (SDS) or spline shanks. Also becoming popular is a slotted shank bit called the "SDS-Max" which is for larger hammers. There is a major difference between a standard hammer drill and a rotary hammer drill. A standard hammer-drill uses 2 grooved plates that rotate opposite of each other; when they slip and the grooves connect, a bang is heard, "hammering" the chuck in and out, allowing a carbide bit to go through masonry materials. This method generates quite a bit of noise and often requires hearing protection. A rotary hammer is extremely more efficient than a regular hammer drill, because it drives a piston that compresses an air pocket, that, in turn, pounds the chuck with measurable impact energy. There really is no question which is better and faster. Rotary hammer drills do the same job in far less time, with less noise and with less effort. For many applications, like drilling into tough materials like aged concrete, a rotary hammer is the only tool to use.
What type of drill can you use to drill holes in concrete block walls?
You should use a masonry bit for this. The drill itself isn't so important; just about any general-purpose drill will work.
