This s a great Drill to build.. Buy one like this amzn.to/3RQl7WJ

[@dunhill1]

I bought one of these about 5y ago from a vendor at JaxCon and I still love it. Works perfectly fine on styrene, resin and bass wood. If you don't abuse or force it, it shall last like mine. Glad you found one. I don't recall if mine had that Tamiya sticker. I may have thrown it away by mistake, but it's all about function. Thanks for sharing.

[@666styxxx666]

When I bought mine in Tokyo in 2014 I seem to recall getting a tiny sticker ( no tamiya branded one) ment for the bottom of the grip , ( didn't use it I know what it is 😅) however i do want the other version ( router if I remember correctly) when a friend asked me why I got it I just said I'm a builder of models so why not build the drill I'll be using 😂 ' he didn't get the joke,

[@TheHateSpeechChannel]

Just built mine today with the upgrade bearing. I brought mine back from the main tamiya store in Bangkok Thailand. Less than 20 quid. You would not believe the tools and products in that store, I hadn't heard or seen of many things in there. And of course cheaper than UK!

[@MOS6510Models]

i would love to go over there for the experience and buy the tools.. Thanks for the update on the bearing.. im gonna look into it

[@alexb1340]

Hi Moss, These are a great little tool. The Plastic bearing installed in Step 4 onto the drill shaft was originally designed by Tamiya to be a high speed metal ball bearing and the plastic one can be replaced with a Tamiya 'Hop Up' bearing 1150 (in fact it states 1150 on the instructions!) this bearing is 5 x 11 x 4mm and is a direct replacement. Using a metal bearing really improves the concentricity of the tool and reduces run out. You can easily get these online for a few pence and is a worthwhile upgrade. Note: The bearing upgrade is even more of a benefit on the Tamiya Handy Router #74042 as it runs at higher RPM and in use can be subjected to a side load.

[@MOS6510Models]

Good shout.. I will be building the router at some point so will look at this upgrade.. thanks matey

[@ashengrail]

Looks good! I'd suggest emphasizing a bit more grease on the safety screw - mine was a devil to get in AND still isn't working properly. Not the biggest deal, but still!

[@MOS6510Models]

it was that clip that was hard work for me.. I use it alot to be fair, it hasn't let me down

[@ashengrail]

@@MOS6510Models Feels like a good drill so far - a quick test on MDF shows that it's not bad for $12!

[@Quaralane]

Have to admit, I was surprised when I got mine and had to build it. Excellent little drill, though

[@MOS6510Models]

Great to hear!

[@celticwest]

Nickel Metal Hydride batteries. Nice video, mate

[@MOS6510Models]

That’s the ones hahah

[@411maintainer]

I built one of those, man does it come in handy

[@stuff31]

Now that looks very useful! I am still yet to even get my own pin vice...

[@MOS6510Models]

Pin vice is very useful too..

[@luvstellauk]

To be honest I'd say a bit expensive looking at the parts and construction when you can get a very usable hobby drill with accessories for similar money.

[@MOS6510Models]

it was a fun build

[@TringmotionCoUk]

As with all things, there is a specific tool to fit e-clips and you will be unsurprised to hear it makes it much easier 😅 The selling point of this drill is it's ease of grip and low speed. Bearing upgrade would be well worth it

[@MOS6510Models]

Thanks for the tip! im going to buy the bearings

[@stuarthayes5880]

Nice video MOS. But its one gimmick i can do without

[@MOS6510Models]

yeah i understand that

[@dtrain1634]

Wow didn’t know they made this!

[@martinB68]

Great little Video Mos,i will look for this.

[@MOS6510Models]

Hope you like it! Link in the description

[@863rafael]

Tamiya makes everything a kit. I thought they stopped making that. One thing that got my attention though is that it can accomodate smaller, finer drill bits(am I right or wrong?) Something other rotary tools can't do.

[@dtrain1634]

That’s good for installing pylons on aircraft kits

[@ashengrail]

It has two chucks - a bigger (2-3mm) and smaller (1-2mm), yeah.

[@goforitpainting]

Cool

[@SamsVlogstrainsmore]

Very nice build and review Mos!

[@MOS6510Models]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@simonallen6427]

Don't forget to watch the videos showing various upgrades!

[@richw0123]

Better off buying a Como Drill for £20 more, they are much more robust, versatile and concentrically accurate, with a speed control and a chuck that can take really small drills.

[@paulschumacher1263]

Love the build. Hate the office/industrial music.

[@timcarson8146]

Nice little drill. I have looked at it over the years, but never picked it up.

[@MOS6510Models]

It's good

[@Gremlins_Modelling_Mayhem]

Hi MOS, nice and compact tool, glad you moved your finger to avoid the ikky moment 😂

[@MOS6510Models]

it was no where near it..it was the angle of the camera lol

[@Gremlins_Modelling_Mayhem]

@@MOS6510Models LOL

[@simonallen6427]

Make sure you remove the gear srpue gates correctly to avoid malfunction using a file!

[@martindaredare]

Nice drill les I would buy one very handy lightweight tool. Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@MOS6510Models]

Thanks, you too!

[@hortonshotrodshop2003]

Have not been able to find one yet. Think it would be neat.

[@MOS6510Models]

Amazon have a load in stock :)

[@Victor2K23]

Can I put a more torque motor? Is it gonna break a plastic gear?

[@MOS6510Models]

i really dont know sorry

[@huwtindall7096]

May have missed it in the review but is it variable speed?

[@MOS6510Models]

NO single speed matey

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

I think it is cheaper to buy a Dremel with a reduction gear. So the plastic gears wont burn out in 10 minutes.

[@MOS6510Models]

Proxxon is the one you want matey.. fabulous tool

[@julianmhall]

What's the smallest drill bit size? Models often specify 1 or 1.2mm.

[@MOS6510Models]

ive put in a 0.7mm and that worked :)

[@pfsmodellingprojects]

Look's like something made by Fisher Price..

[@21monkey21ify]

A OK OK OK XXX

[@debeeriz]

30 QUID for a toy drill, no thanks, you can by a reversible rechargeable variable speed driill for less

[@MOS6510Models]

Fair enough!
