I've got a couple 12 volt drills from Harbor Freight. Figure that when
they die, I'll take em apart. Wire to a lamp cord and lighter socket

convenient, but it's portable (somewhat) and turns drills or screws.


That's what I was thinking.


A cheap/spare 3/8th socket extension, gound square (or with some flats
on it) *for the brace chuck to grip onto?


Thanks everyone for the posts. I now know its called a Brace. After
googling it, I found that Le Valley has what I'm looking for (see link
below, item "D").
