That's pretty sweet, but my DeWalt corded 10 amp drill does just fine for me at home. It'll twist your arm off if you're not careful.

I have a right angle adapter bit, as well as a flexible extension that work great in many situations

huh, that's a nice setup with the battery replacement. my milwaukee 18v packs usually last about 3yrs and they need to be replaced. it's not too bad actually as i use them quite often.

does your corded 10amp have a slip clutch?

ahhh... the joys of a new hobby
i have to say, the older tools were much better quality. even if the handles look worn out and used (or nicely broken in ) they usually use much better materials.

rotary tools themselves can be had less than $15 for a decent one.
