Labhras773 I'm glad you are taking a step back. The last thing I want to do is criticize and discourage. But I also want help and it takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there to strangers. Often the net is not a kind place. But I felt like a noob too when master Frank stepped in and pointed out by its very nature a drill is NOT meant for side loads, doh! We see periodically folks who want to for instance turn a drill press into a mill. Once again because the Chuck is only held on by a taper and the bearings are not set up for side loads, folks are trying to make a tool do what it was not designed to do. You can modify it to make it work, but IMHO it's cheaper to just buy used.
