Maybe I'll try and order the part.

I can understand a certain satisfaction in getting something broken to work again. But a chuck? Don't you have chores to do or something?

I actually have a new chuck in the drill and have been using it all summer. I still ahve the pieces on my bench and they look at me reproachfully. I thought you all were being kept awake at night wondering the outcome of this project.

Jeepers guys, I thought we could all bond over tools.

Oh. My bad. Lessee.

I have a Sears 1/4" power drill that I've had for 25 years now. It still works great, but I'm thinking one of those keyless chucks sounds good. Anyone use one? Can I retrofit one to the Sears drill I've got?
