Fitted a keyless chuck to mine - lovely. Went for the most expensive of the cheap ones!
You got yours set up yet WCA?

They go in this…
Nice! Is that a Scorpion?
CZ - close but not quite! Its a Sabre. They started life as Scorpions, but when the Scorpion and Fox armoured car were retired at the same time (late 90's), they mated the Fox turret to the Scorpion to create the Sabre, very similar to a Scimitar. They were never terribly successful and were sold off after a relatively short period of time, which is how I came to acquire one.
After 40 years of squaddie maintenance, there's plenty to keep my bench drill busy! 😄
Mine is now sat on the new wooden stand I built for it. I haven't actually used it yet but it is nice and big and heavy looking like a proper bit of workshop kit.
