ok, i
really need a drill. i gave my old cordless to
bsdlite when moving, with the intent to upgrade to a corded drill later.
personally-imposed rules:
corded power,
keyed chuck,
variable speed.
options:
hitachi d10vf, 3/8", 9 amp, 3000 rpm, unknown origin, $104 on
amazon
bosch 1030vsr, 3/8", 7.5 amp, 2100 rpm, swiss origin, $129 on
amazon
milwaukee 0200-20, 3/8", 7 amp, 1200 rpm, unknown origin, $133 on
amazon
dewalt dw223g, 3/8", 7 amp, 1200 rpm, unknown origin, $137 on
amazon
i need to look at which ones have a stand for pseudo-press action. more soon!
I got one for €10 at the local supermarket 3 years ago.
Still going strong!
I have a Bosch corded power drill which is also from Switzerland, it's getting on for 9 years old now and is still in top form, however a lot of Bosch equipment now is made in China, which is concernable.
I would also take a look at a power tool company called Makita, thier equipment is used a great deal by British tradesman and I have a couple of Makita power tools myself, a cordless Power Drill and an Angle Grinder, they're on the cheaper side of the range but both serve me well.
I believe the Milwaukee name is owned by the same Hong Kong company that manufacture Ryobi and Homelite power tools, which are cheap tat. I'm pretty sure Milwaukee stuff is made in China too, which again isn't really a good sign.
Basically I would certainly reccomend looking into Makita, from the ones you've posted I would probably go for the Bosch or DeWalt.
Regarding the origin of DeWalt equipment, it's made all over the place, my uncle bought a DeWalt Mitre Saw which was made in Czech Republic, which isn't too bad, however in a trade store I was in recently I was looking at DeWalt cordless drills and they were made in China, some of thier stuff I believe is made in USA too.
Remember quality tends to increase with price.
my dad has a makita corded drill. it rules.
damnit, i need a drill now. i don't have time to do research for this shit first.
Just get a Makita, you'll be good.
It's a good quality brand with a warranty backup and spare parts are avaliable.

toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I love my milwaukee. I would have to verify but i think it a 8amp 800 rpm. Torque that can take anything that I can try against it.
i know your pain lr, godspeed
i'll probably just borrow a drill from a friend. i don't have money anymore, anyway.
seems reasonable.
haha
my dad is suggesting a 1/2" drill. time to do the research again.
