    Unhappy Buggered Drill

    Howdy all.
    It had to happen, I dropped my cordless drill , surprisingly it bounced and the casing and battery survived intact but the drill began making a horrible noise and reduced revs. After dismantling I found one damaged gear in the gearbox. EPTS tell me it is not available as a spare on its own (You have to buy a new gearbox/motor assy for $60!) so my plea to my brethren is this... does any one else out there own a dead Ryobi cordless drill that I can burgle? It is a 12V HC1262 but I'm sure similar models would share the same gearing.
    I just canna come to terms with chucking it for want of a two cent gear!

    MMM....Or is this the time to start comparing models in time for the Adelaide T&WWW Show!

    Try a modelling shop. No, not that kind of model. They often have all sorts of small gears from Mechano sets etc.

    Default Smart tip recycling centre

    If you were in Brisbane I would suggest trying the Smart Tip Recycling Centre as they have boxes of drills going through all the time. Maybe you have the same in Adeliade.

    Mark has the ability to make one out of anything. He's clever but doesn't want SWMBO to know about it!

    Good on you Mark
