minus-squarefahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·2 months agoJudging by the fireworks show inside I would be questioning if the brushes even exist anymore or it’s just running on the springs
minus-squareGormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up8·2 months agoGood news is that carbon brushes are cheaper than a new drill
minus-squarefahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoThat drill costs like $25 bucks sooooooooo
minus-squareGormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 months agoMeh, I’d still give it a shot to look into fixing it. At the very least as a learning exercise. I’m a fan of fixing things and preventing stuff from finding their way into landfills when ever possible.

minus-squareGormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 months agoAh the lovely disposable tools, how I hate these so much. Thank you for the info.
minus-squareLandless2029@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 months agoDoesn’t mean shit. I got a $25 powered no name screw driver and I use it every time I gotta grab a screwdriver. For years. No issues with it. Sadly most things are made to just die after a year and go into a landfill.
