Can someone please tell me where I put the hi-temp grease I got a
couple of years ago? Cos I can't find it, and I do need it.

I can't, but I found my drill chuck key today, in a pack of doorknobs.

I don't know why it was there as the chuck itself was still fixed to
the plaster mixing paddle.

I found myself without mine today, due to using a small drill I don't
use much. Stuck a nail in the hole in the side of the chuck, and used a
screwdriver into the teeth to tighten it. Worked fine.


My pillar drill and chuck-key stay together on the bench; my mains and
battery hammer drills have keyless chucks; so only the add on chuck for
my SDS drill has a key that moves around and I make sure that that goes
in the accessory box within the drill's case so that I can always find it.

Back when my mains and battery drills had keyed chucks,



Am I the only one who having got used to years of using a cordless with a
keyless chuck
and giving the tool a quick burst while holding the it till it grips got a
painful reminder that method doesnt work too well with an inherited mains
drill with a keyed chuck.
