If you look you can get a Worm Drive for a little under $200.00.


I have a Milwaukee 1/2 drive hole shooter that I have used for 25 years.
Not just around the house but in heavy industry down where you live.
Drilling holes in the heavy I Beam to hang pipe supports and U Bolts.

I will NOT buy the stuff from HD or Lowes I get my stuff on line from people like Houston and Austin Tool Supply.
Some time a go they were making counterfeit Milwaukee tools in China and selling them at flea markets.

I would like to add I have rebuilt many of the high end tools for a lot less money than a new one.
Yep, that is the one. Circle Saw Supply in Houston was usually my source. Another tool that the original is far better than what is out there now is a Porter Cable Porta Band Saw. The models from the mid '80's could be rebuilt. Most of the stuff today is throw away.
