My first thought after reading this title: Oh cool, they've taken part in a drill and used the motor. I don't really know what that looks like inside a power drill. This will be an interesting post.

Immediately opened it and laughed out loud. Perfect execution, no notes.

That's all nice and well -- but Matthias Wandel built a wooden scaffolding on wheels 12 years ago that was drill powered. That's _really_ crazy...

and as a bonus, now you know how it feels to ride a BMW boxer motorbike in a turn ;-)

I do wonder how long the electronics, motor and little (plastic) gears in the drill would last with this. Especially since I'd suspect that it's designed for intermittent use, where it has time to cool down between each screw / hole drilling that you'd do normally. If you drive 2 miles in one go, that'll be a lot of heat that doesn't have time go anywhere.

Somehow I'd suspect that it won't last all that long...

Feels good to see some one is enjoying and having fun with the tech

We are in the days of building the things we dreamed about as kids. Looks great for right turns!

Where have I seen something like this before. Right HAWK Hildesheim organized (locally) famous "Akkuschrauberrennen" https://m.youtube.com/results?sp=mAEA&search_query=akkuschra...

Wonder how this would work with an impact? Also, since it already uses one-way bearings, could another drill/impact be fitted to the other side so that there are two “gears” available?

Reminds me of the red green show sans duct tape

What is that 3D printed wheel made of that it can support over half of your weight while bumping along a road?

A good friend of mine told me he would frequently come across a guy who had modified his bicycle with an electric drill.

He would see him leaning over and pulling the trigger get an electric assist on the uphill section of the commute.

Direct drive, yes, also direct drill.

Watch out for the gear change, may end up in hammer action.

You know you could have used a 90 degree chuck buddy. Or better yet, an angle grinder to make it a friction drive from above.

Turning right seems hard.

video or it didnt happen!

Missed the opportunity to add vacuums and blowers and go upside down plus lateral and rotational movement, with fancy dark themed site and buzz words all over :)

add another wheel on the other side of the drill for a kind of sidecar-like stability? (tricycle style?)
