    Lightbulb Angle Drill

    Made this attachment some time ago. It's one these stuff you doesn't use often, but when you need it, it save the day. Today was one of these days and remembered to post here.



    Tool was made with one angle grinder that burned. Threw away stator, carcass and cut rotor to couple the drill.



    The mandrel was bored and new thread was made to go on angle grinder spindle.



    This way I can make holes on tight spaces as the shelves was installing today.



    Bonus feature is the rpm will be much lower. Can be good to drill steel without damaging the drill bit...

    Nicely done. Reusing parts from a burned out grinder. Brilliant!
