    Default Stuffed battery power drills

    I am after two identical battery powered drills that I wanted to scavenge the motors out of.
    So the batteries can be stuffed and the chuck etc not working.
    The drills need to be identical because they have to run at the same speed under the same electrical input.
    If you only have one drill - please post info about that one incase someone else has another identical.
    Am hoping to get these at or close to the cost of postage .

    Thanks

    whats the definition of junk?...... something you throw out 2 weeks before its needed/wanted again.

    2 Makita 18v drills went to the dump 2 weeks ago as their old batteries would no longer hold their charge even after buying chinglese replacement batteries...sorry
    I would love to grow my own food, but I can not find bacon seeds

    A year ago I had a clean out of all my electrical wires/vables and managed to reduce the 5 boxes/tubs of these down to 3. One of the types of wire I decided to get rid of was 4 core telephone cable which a week later would have been useful in a project. Later that day I so happened to be dropping stuff off at the local waste transfer station and there in the E-wast bin there was still a roll of the stuff I had dropped off the week before.

    Hi Bob, couldn't send you photos in a PM so posted here,
    here is the labels, they aren't identical models but so similar that I thought they were
    Are these suitable for your experiments

    Absolutely perfect Rick.
    Thanks for posting the pics.

    The fact that they are 12V instead of 18V and the slowest speeds of 0-450 rpm are just right.

    Have sent you PM

    CHEERS
    BOB
