That has every part of the gun EXCEPT the specialized tool holder. If I
had
a metal lathe and carbide cutting tip I could turn down the shaft of a
DeWalt bit holder (http://www.grizzly.com/products/h4639) and make it
work.
The problem is that the seal at the end of the drill portion is smaller
than
a standard tool holder. Just above the hex shank I need the holder
turned
down from about 0.450" to 0.370" for about 0.650", a simple operation IF
I
had a metal lathe. I can find lots of bit holders that are the right
length, but they are too thick to fit in the gun.

Don't machine shops do that sort of thing for people who hire them?

If it is really just one setup and one operation, how much would they
charge?

If all you need is a bit like the Harbor Freight one referenced, I
will do that for you. How many do you want done?


???????????????? Harbor Freight does NOT have the bit I need. I was asking
about the screwgun they have.


My mistake. The machining offer stands.

Email me off line and we will work it out.
