does your corded 10amp have a slip clutch?




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.

Yeah, it's some cheapo brand, too. Ryobi or something (pretty sure that's not right).

Umm... it has whatever DeWalt put in it I'm pretty sure it has a clutch because that's what slips when you exceed the torque you have set. Is slip clutch used in an impact driver?

many of the tools look worn and dirty, but they are far better quality than the comparable tools you buy nowadays. I like my tools dirty, it means they're well used and battle-tested
