I saw the damnest thing the other day, a group in school here were making a project using heim joints. The school doesn't have drills over 1/2" dia and they needed, not remembering exactly, a 11/16ish drill to tap threads. A student has his dad borrow said drill from, I guess, work. They placed it on our Do-all saw table where it promptly rolled off, hit the floor.... AND BROKE IN HALF! I have dropped larger drills all my life and all they ever did was bounce with a nice, metallic DIIING! My jaw dropped, how brittle was this thing? I didn't see the name on it but reading the file thread got me wondering.
Anyone?
