Default 9/16" hex shank chuck arbor?

Anybody know where bits or arbors to fit a Skil 732 Roto-hammer
can be found? Bought it with a few bits for $50, now that it
seems to work it'd be nice to add one or two newer bits and
maybe a chuck arbor.

The drive tang is 9/16" hex, the tool retainer has a 3/4" hex.
Far as I can tell very, very little is available in that size.
An ordinary half inch chuck would probably suffice for the little
work I'd do.


Initially I was rather surprised at how much it vibrates. On taking
it apart it's understandable: The striker is only about 25% of the
reciprocating mass, none of which is counterbalanced. Are modern
designs any better?

Thanks for reading, and any guidance.
