Define "support"? If your drill motor has a chuck, it will be supported.

Is it sturdy and beefy and something you would expect to last a few years on
a jobsite? Mine doesn't feel that solid, but for what it is it works great.

Being able to handle the power of the drill. Being able to handle

torque handling capacity and durability as the other parts in the

It all depends on what you want to do with the drill. Small holes,
sure, spade bits, maybe, driving 3" holesaws, probably not. I solved
the problem of needing a right-angle drive by getting a pneumatic
right-angle drill. Not cordless but WILL run off the CO2 tank.
Very compact and all the power I need. I don't run it day in and day
out, though. YMMV

I have a right angle attachment I got from Harbor Freight that works
good. Cost around $10.00 on sale. The flats on the input shank had
some run out, but I cleaned that up on a surface grinder. When I had
it apart it looked like it would hold up. I've used it in close
quarters with 1.250 spade bits and for driving screws.

Why screw around?

If you want something which is battery powered, and does a nice
job, take a look at the following item from Rigid:

http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1...atalogId=10053

with the following needed to power it:

http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1...atalogId=10053

FWIW -- I have this kit, the drill head above, and the hammer which
follows:

http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1...atalogId=10053

and have found all to be quite useful. I haven't bothered with the
impact drivers or the ratchet heads, because I have compressed air tools
for that. (Actually, for the drill too -- but this one has plenty of
torque to drive drywall screws.)

So -- if you can benefit from other parts of the kit, you might
find the kit better than a single tool. I used them all for some
drywall work and installing outlets in cramped spaces (which is where
the power hammer helped -- there was not room to swing a good hammer to
attach the outlet boxes to the framing.

Yes, it is 12V not 18V, but it is also LiIon and seems to do
better than a similar volume of NiCad cells.

Enjoy,
DoN.

What size and weight of CO2 canister would you need for comparable

Interesting. Hadn't heard that old saw in a few years, not since a lot
of US businesses moved off shore and Americans started visiting China.

I'm not sure where any Chinese prisons are actually in the
manufacturing business but all those thousands of bicycle riders, and
increasingly motorcycle riders are not slaves.

Running it for very long at all can cause problems from freezing. I've
frozen CO2 regulators (cheap ones) from running almost continuously.

I don't understand that, unless you were running liquid to the regulator.

CO2 is liquified under much less pressure than (say) O2 is compressed
(not liquified) in its cylinder.

A gas cools proportionately to the expansion ratio. CO2 expands much
less than would the O2 because it's at lower pressure in the tank. It
will cool less, as well.

We use lots of CO2-powered confetti equipment, some regulated, some not.
We've _never_ frozen a regulator, even running gas-to-gas continuously
for twenty minutes.

Now... liquid-to-gas... yeah. You'll freeze up in a hurry; just a minute
or two at a couple of cubic feet per minute.

Well, it might be impossible, but I've done it. My regulator was frosty
white with icicles hanging off it, and I had to switch it out to continue
welding. I'm pretty sure it was frozen, but I could be wrong. The room
temperature one I replaced it worked like a charm. I have only frozen a
regulator about three times during HEAVY use, and they were the $25 variety.

Maybe they're more now. But yes, you can get cheapies for MIG welding for
low prices. They aren't very good, and don't last a long time if you weld
much at all. When you're getting started, a $20 CO2 regulator that will get
you by until you make enough to get into Victors is standard. One at
Northern Tools is now $49. That was about 1978, so I'm sure they've gone up
a few bux.

My last yard sale purchase of two Victor regulators (the large 450-460 ones)
plus 50' hose plus cutting head plus cart plus accessories was $45, so doing
that math, I guess those were really $10 regulators. They worked just fine
for a $10 regulator.

I have never paid retail for a regulator in my life except for those $20 CO2
regs.

I use them for service and parts. Some used rigs are better than the new
ones. Of the half dozen used rigs I've bought, a trip to rehab never was
much, as I only bought working sets. There's not a hell of a lot to them,
and are easy to check for condition.

Freezing a CO2 regulator is not a problem I've faced, but I did end up
with a couple of these in an auction lot, so it's apparently a real
phenomenon.
