Abuse of an old drill

<< < (2/2)

bogstandard:
You just keep it in your shop Stew, within the next 50 years when no-one has asked to use it, you can sell it on eblay.

Darren,

I think hand drill chucks are removed by opening up the jaws, and looking down inside, you should see a locking screw. Remove that and the chuck should just screw off.

Darren:
No screw in this one John, no flats on the shaft either,

It just seems to be part of the shaft, I realise that can't be right, it just seems that way.  :scratch:

websterz:
I have the exact same tach...love it! I tested it against the big K&T horizontal where I used to work and it was accurate to within +/- 15 RPM no matter where I set the mill. Most impressive, especially for a $20.00 Ebay gadget!  :clap:

Darren:
Yes it seems to work quite well. I bought mine when I was having trouble with my old mill. It had no speed chart and the number of belt positions was mind boggling. I had no idea what speeds I was using.

I think it was about £7, £12 with shipping. Very cheap for what it does.   :)
