I bought this for drilling in tight spots Drill_zpsdd8744c5

Ostensibly for drilling .8mm PCB holes but the chuck gives out at 1mm It will take 1mm > 1.5mm bits great for pilot holes for screws and brads.

However a 5 pole little motor, body length 40mm x 27 dia for GBP 2.13 = $3.59Au is not to be sneezed at, I've been offered a refund because the chuck was larger than stated but I might bye a few more for motor stocks.

Thanks David I tried it at 12v and had trouble stalling the chuck so it's a little power house when I over this Flu I'll put an amp meter in line to check the current.

that's a real , cracker of a tool Damien......think I'll have one of those


does it mean that you can actually change the drill bit should you break them or is the bit pressed into the "chuck head".

cheers, neil..

It's a screw chuck for 1mm to 1.5mm drills it just won't hold the .8mm drill supplied Neil, a razor saw could be used to open it a bit for 2mm use.

Whilst these little motor drills served their purpose well at the time my shaky hands cant hold it steady enough to be accurate.

While perusing an ebay sellers site I found a Mini drill press it takes .6mm to 6.5mm it set me searching for more like it.
This is the cheapest I found,

 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Bench-Top-Mini-Drill-Press-16000rpm-for-Wood-or-Metal-Hobby-Table-Top-0.6-6-.5mm/232907782210?autorefresh=true&autorefresh=true

I found a solution

So I treated myself to a Christmas present.
