Thanks! I'm just a hapless homeowner who occasionally roleplays being handy enough to fix things (though my last shelving unit for my basement came out remarkably level, surprisingly).

(I had actually been hoping to repair the Dewalt, as it's a hand-me-down from my dad (fuck cancer), but I'm pretty sure it'd be a lost cause (the drill is at least 20 years old, probably older, I'm pretty sure I remember my dad using it when I was a kid).)

I'm still using my deceased dad's orange drill from the 1970s made by Black+Decker.

Fuck cancer, I concur.
