Axminster keyless chucks
Missed the rest of the thread, but I bought a keyless chuck from
Screwfix recently. Got fed up with the teeth on the keyed ones wearing down eventually, mislaying the key etc. The chuck itself seems to be fine but I found one big disadvantage. It's fatter than the keyed chuck, so all my accessories that fit the drill's collar won't get past it. I have to take the chuck off to change from, say, the standard handle to a benchmount clamp. I'm an impatient devil at the best of times and this sort of hold-up when in the flow of things is sufficient to bring on a demonstration of my expertise in a dialect of English widely spoken by quarry workers.
