I was looking for a small, light, compact powered drill type tool for me to use with very small drillbits that I would otherwise have to use in a pinvise and manually turn to get a hole in the delicate material that I was drilling into or sanding on. I didn't want to have to drag out the Dremel everytime, and the drillbits I needed to use were too small for the dremel anyway. This drill turned out to be a great find. It is all those things and more because it is battery powered and turns out to be as convienent as my cordless screwdriver. I can take it to the top of a ladder with the battery pack in my pocket or use it on my model building workbench without it taking up much space. It only has an on and off button but when I use the dremel I usually use it on high speed anyway so this feature is not limiting to me. The drill comes with a limited but useful amount of accessories, but I found that much of my Dremel accessories fit and can be used with the hobby drill including the cutoff wheel accessories. I don't use it everyday and have yet to replace the batteries but they seem to last. This drill is greatly needed by people needing the above attributes and should be advertised and promoted much more than it is. Why it only comes in a camo color is a mystery?

This hobby drill/pin vise is fairly cheap in construction but gets the job done. And that job is pinning. The drill bits it comes with are perfect for using metal paper clips for pinning models together. The handle cap unscrews and has storage space for your bits. The chuch/collet comes off and has a double ended collet with two different sizes. However, the larger size I found totally USELESS. It is two big to fit a 1/16" bit and too small for a 1/8" bit. And the small end is too small for a 1/16" bit. You can wrap some foil around a 1/16" bit and it will fit but it is a pain in the rear.
So basically it's good for pinning using paperclips or small diameter rod but you CANNOT effectively use it for magnetizing your models as it can't use any bits to match even the smallest magnets.
