| Small, powered driver with a chuck?
In a post somewhere that I can no longer find for the life of me... somebody posted a picture of a small, electric screwdriver type thing. Most importantly though, instead of the typical hex chuck you usually find, this one had a little keyless chuck like a drill. It *might* have been made by Black & Decker, but I am not sure about that... Has anyone seen the post I am talking about? Or, does anyone know of a similar tool? I want one bad, and it's driving me nuts not being able to find it! Thanks |

I was searching around some more last night and found this: It's not what I am looking for, but could certainly be used to accomplish the same thing. |

I have one of those, it has the standard 1/4 drive to fit a electric screwdriver. It works great as a keyless chuck however it cannot be spun in reverse as for whatever reason the chuck loosens that way. Electric screw drivers spin far to slow be useful as a drill.

| I don't want to use this as a drill; I already have collected more corded and cordless drills over the years than I care to admit! What I want to be able to do is clamp the bits from my allen driver sets (with 3mm round shafts) into the chuck. That way, I can save a little wear and tear on the wrist when assembling, say... beadlocks with 96 allen bolts! Thanks for the heads-up on not working in reverse! |

Then buy hex bits. OR Is it that they are too short? Something like this with metric sizes. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=93916 |

Already have a second set of (3mm shaft) tips kicking around. Plus, after using hardened tip drivers, I don't ever want to go back to cheap, soft, quick wearing pieces again...

I just chuck the tips of my losi wrenches into my big cordless drill to save my wrist.

Could you just use some of these? http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...MIP+SPEED+TIP+ It would get expensive if you needed more than one size, though. |

I probably wouldn't be so hung up on this if I hadn't seen a post in here about it somewhere... Perfect example of what I am after, except (I think) they all have hex drives. I'm after one with a keyless chuck! Hmmm... I've never seen those. But if I bought 1.5mm, 2mm, 3mm and some standard sizes, it would probably cost as much as a whole new electric driver! | |
