How many drills do you have?

I've only got 4 that get most of the use last few years, 2 Makita LXT drills and 2 impacts, wish I had an extra of each again though. A really old Hitachi I used for door hanging decades ago, it was the only drill that I didn't burn out from the heavy forstner use for the locksets.

An el cheapo but really powerful SDS hammer drill that gets occasional use, a few old AEG and Bosch small hammer drills I lost sight of many years ago, and 3 collated screwguns if they count, one Fein and 2 Makita LXT.

For anyone who does a lot of screwing or fastening, collated screwguns are unbelievably useful!
 
OK, I’ll play;

Hilti SF6H-A22 Gen 1 combi
Hilti SF6H-A22 Gen 2 combi
Hilti SID22 impact driver
Hilti TE30AVR SDS
Hilti DD110D diamond core
 
I have 4  T15 drills.2 are newer version with LED and are my workhorse jobsite drills...2 are OG drills from 2010 or so. Also have 2 TXS and a TI-15
 
2 x Protool quad drives bought when Festool Oz had a fire sale and they sold them for about 1/4 of the original price.

A C12 which I bought as it was just about the only brushless available at the time and it is now close to going in the bin.

3 12 volt Bosch drivers all different models and one is an impact driver.

A corded Bosch which I used to build my workshop about 40 years ago and has had very limited use until we recently started a renovation and has definitely earned its keep in recent months.

A Bosch SDS drill I was given some years ago which is now useful in the reno.

An Arbroga geared head drill press, run from a VFD for stepless speed control, they will take that out of my cold dead hands.
 
Lets see,
Right angle drills include a large corded Milwaukee Hole Hawg, M18 Milwaukee Hole Hawg, 3/8" 90 degree M18 Milwaukee, 3/8" 90 degree LXT Makita and a corded 3/8" Milwaukee close quarters angle drill.
Straight corded drills consist of a 1/2" Dewalt and a 3/8" B&D industrial in addition to the others listed above.
Rotary hammers include 18V options by Milwaukee (2) and Makita (1) as well as a corded Dewalt
18V cordless drills include 2 Milwaukee, 2 Makita and 2 Festool.
12v cordless models are down to a single Milwaukee after giving away my 12V Dewalt last month.
I also have two of the Festool CSX models
If we're including the 1/4" impact drivers, i have at least ten scattered between Festool, Makita and Milwaukee, (gave away the Dewalt one along with the dril).
 
More than ten but less than twenty. Four Festool, more Makita, and a couple of Bosch 12v. My oldest drill is a B&D from when they made a "pro" model. It rarely comes out but always shines. My favorite drill is the CSX, favorite impact is a Makita TD173d. I'm interested in some of the 40v XGT drills. Even more if Makita comes out with a BL4025F.
 
Makes my head hurt to even think about actually tallying up my drills everything from CSX, C18, PDS and Milwaukee M12s to an 1 3/4" Milwaukee rotary, Fein, Flex, Makita and that's my cordless also still have two Milwaukee corded 1/4" and 1/2"  hole shooters, 1/2" right angle PC.
 
3 if impact drivers are not included
1 festool TXS
1 dewalt cordless
1 bosch rotary hammer, cordless
and a drill press
 
I store mine in a rather unconventional way. No racks or holsters, just a big drawer. The CXS is in its Systainer, just to the left of this toolbox.

I see you've been plenty busy with your Shaper there for those bit holders! :)
 
I feel like my drill game doesn't belong here...

C12, but need to get the batteries rebuilt
CXS original

Bosch SDS hammer drill

Like CRG, mine are out of box and at arm's length: CXS and C15 are on the workcenter, other Festools are on the shelf over the drill press. The SDS is the only one in its box with all the bits hanging on the wall for when I need it.

Question for those with the QuadDrive/PDC/TPC/TDC family: if you're not driving a masonry bit into, well, masonry, do you find the hammer function of these drills useful? Do they un-stuck a screw easily? They always intrigue me, but without knowing how it would benefit my uses, I've ignored them on recon
 
I don’t this hammer function is useful for anything other than drilling in masonry.

But I’m not familiar with the QuaDrive tool. If it can hammer without rotation that would be useful sometimes.
