awesome ! i like being able to put my hands onto my tool.....s without scratting about (so many inuendo's its scary)

the mag drill is excelent and a good buy for the would be carrier rebuilder.. it can be cumbersome to hold in situ but what I do is dial the drill bit down so its flush with the work surface then line the drill bit up with the spot and switch on the magnet.. you can do similar with a centre pin facility. the drill comes with standard chuck as pictured and rotabroach style (with oiler) can cut up to 25mm (dia) holes and it goes through the 10mm steel like butter and is ideal for doing the countersinking (as you can centre the drill on the hole then change out the bits) struggles to stick on the thinner steel but all the armour is a sinch to it.
