In this review, the author shows how you can modify a cordless electric screwdriver with your own hands. Or rather, a cartridge. The bottom line is to make a cartridge with a latch instead of a standard cartridge with a magnetic holder.
For this, the author plans to use an extension cord with a latch. To work, you need a grinder and an electric drill. The whole process of refinement will not take more than half an hour.
First of all, with the help of angle grinders, the shank must be cut off from the extension cord with the clamp. Then the author processes the cut-off point on a grinder.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, the author decided to cut off the edge of the bit holder (which is standard). After that, he marks the place for drilling and drills a hole for the fixing screw in the chuck together with the extension cord. Then it will be necessary to cut the thread.
Then, inside the cartridge, the author stuffs an epoxy resin, then inserts the extension cord and fixes it with a screw. After the epoxy hardens, the protruding part of the screw will need to be cut off with a grinder.
The keyless chuck fixes bits better, so we can assume that such a refinement was only beneficial. And the time spent is minimal.
