I'm intrigued as to why you would want the laser to be anywhere other than where the cut should be? Seeing as the point of the laser is to increase accuracy.

It's worth noting that in the past, incandescent bulbs were rated in Watts ,we associated that with how bright they were. Led units are also rated in Watts but that only specifies to their electrical consumption, the light output is measured in lumens, not helpful if you're a first time user as...

I converted my entire house to led ten years ago and at the time, in my conservatory there used to be two wall lights. They each used a 100w halogen bulb, I exchanged the internals for 10w led chips with a suitable driver and there was no noticeable reduction in light output, that's an...

By all accounts they're not the best, but they were made in the UK and they do the job. It's taken me about eight years to get round to fettling mine, lack of information was my block, but as I now own the tools to complete the job and require a working pillar drill for an upcoming project I...

Ha ha, imagine then that the last person who fitted the bearings fitted the wrong type according to a number on the bearing casing and you then go and buy the same wrong bearings. I did mention further up that the run out is extreme and have no desire to replicate that. I've measured the...

I beg to differ. As an example, if I search for the main bearing for my washing machine by part number, the results are usually in the £30-50 range, if I instead measure and search by size, the price drops to about £7.50 in either case I get to fix the machine, I've done this, I also changed...

A deep groove ball bearing, I have managed to order these incredibly easily without a code, as bearing manufacturers use sizes to sell them. You get to choose if you want open, metal cased or rubber sealed ones and choose your price point, I opted for rubber sealed to keep out dust, but the...

I should also add that an MT2 refers to the tapered shank, that this drill doesn't use and you won't be needing it, just the chuck. (might save you some money)

Hi Richard, I've only just ordered it, but I'm hoping it looks similar to this one, save for the capacity which is a bit different. I was given this drill a few years ago, probably because the run out was so extreme. If I want to drill a 10mm hole I could use an 8mm bit. It's nigh on...

Update a B16 chuck is the original fitment (I put my glasses back on) and oddly these are much cheaper to buy, I've just acquired a 1-16mm B16 keyless chuck for about £17. The JT ones were about double the price.

Hello, I've seen a few different threads for the Nutool CH10 Pillar drill and thought rather than hijack one of those, I'd create a new post with all the information I've gathered. The problem with all the videos and how to's is, nobody lists actual numbers and sizes, so you have to dismantle...
