nismogrendel Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I've been using the citadel drill, but it is starting to fail me. It came with 3 bits, the middle sized bit is having problems. I think the issue is with the chuck. When I screw the drill together, the bit will slip inside the chuck. If I press hard enough the bit falls down inside the chuck. I think I wore the teeth down on the chuck over time. It still works fine for the size 1 and size 3 bits. I'm looking at a few different drills on amazon... not sure which one to go with. These two look not bad: http://www.amazon.com/General-Tools-Instruments-93-Adjustable/dp/B000COYPG4/ref=pd_cp_469_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=11DYK8TY8Q788HVHXTX8&dpID=31NFUAjUjKL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL70_SR70%2C17_http://www.amazon.com/General-Tools-Instruments-S94-Single/dp/B001HWA8UW/ref=sr_1_1?srs=9391149011&ie=UTF8&qid=1445527016&sr=8-1&keywords=s94 Any suggestions?

Bung Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Try to get the one from Gale Force with the wood end, its pretty good. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315185-can-anyone-recommend-a-pin-visedrill/#findComment-4203914 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommodusXIII Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I have an old Citadel pin vise that I picked up in 2001 that's outlasted set after set of bits. Like the Adeptus Mechanicus, they don't build anything like they used to.

Lucien Eilam Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Yeah, I'm a big fan of the old Citadel one too. It was a third-party product just repackaged, and it's still available under various names from many retailers. The Army Painter "Miniature and Model Drill" is one example, IIRC.
