Drills

[julian]

The tool seller at my local car boot sale had Nutool 30v cordless drills with charger and two battery packs for £30 each.

The challenge 24v drills at argos are half price are they any good?

[ewan]

Yeah, but having two back-to-back in a feather takes up a load of space.

[ewan]

Well, more space than 12, 14.4 and 18v drills which all usually have the same motor (550) and gearbox.

wonder if anyone can give me a hand.

I was hoping to use a drill motor but because of space that may not be possible. I am looking ideally for a motor thats 5cm in length with the same power and weight of a drill motor (just over 200g). The diameter does not matter. It will be used to spin a 2kg disc so something that is more torque than rpm would also be good.

I doubt there is anything out there but thats why I am asking you guys!

Depends on your budget - have you looked into an Astro Gary? For a spinning disc an Astro is one of the most popular at the moment.

Maybe a mini ev with a drill gearbox on it ?

budget = cheap

The mini ev is availible in some Euro cars powering the fan motors or heater fans .
