Few users know, that a conventional drill can perform very unusual functions in addition to drilling. For these purposes, there are very original devices for the drill, able to expand its scope. Consider the types of nozzles and attachments, which turn the drill into a completely different unit, able to perform functions uncharacteristic of it at the household level.
stops
This type of device is the most widely represented and has many interpretations.
- Drilling limiter. On the auxiliary handle for an electric drill there is a metal rod with metric divisions - this is the limiter, which rests against a wall or workpiece and does not allow the drill to penetrate to great depths.
- Exposure to parallel. This device is more perfect - it can control the depth of the future hole and the correct location of the tool, used for perpendicular drilling during construction. There are models, where dust is removed simultaneously with a connected vacuum cleaner. The set-top box can be made in fusion with an additional handle, which is installed on impact drills, designed for long-term use in construction.
With the help of a carpenter
The milling attachment turns an ordinary drill into a small home machine, which is used in the repair of furniture. Turning on low speed and clamping it in a special mount, you can make a sample in the right place or grind the side groove.
High precision surface treatment is not expected, but this is not required, example, when installing piano hinges - under them still nothing is visible.
original nozzles
Sometimes it is necessary to drill holes in a very hard to reach place, where the standard product does not fit due to the dimensions, then use the original nozzles for drilling at different angles. The angle drive is ideal for use with any model of electric or cordless tool, because he has his cartridge, where the drills are clamped, and the torque is transmitted through the gearbox and shank, which is fixed in the main drill.
This device can be used not only during drilling, but also when tightening the fasteners (screws, self-tapping screws and screws), cleaning and polishing of hard-to-reach places - we clamp the necessary bit or a nozzle and we carry out the planned volume of works.
There are quite unusual applications to adapt, used for electric drills - pumps. They can't work for long - they can be used to quickly pump out sticky paint residue from a barrel or groundwater., leaked into the cellar. Their productivity is not very high, but you have nowhere to hurry. The case of nozzles is made of strong plastic, service life is short, but the price is low.
racks
To accurately drill the necessary holes in different materials use special racks or guide attachments, which can be purchased in stores - they provide vertical movement of the drill, clamped in a special basket. Compactness, smooth running and accurate metric scale make them attractive for small workshop equipment, where the craftsman will be able to accurately drill any holes, even in objects of round cross-section.
Small vices with the clamped preparation can be established in any place of a bed and densely fixed, thanks to the grooves cut in the base.
unique nail
On the drill for sharpening various tools, you can install special nozzles - it turns into a mini-nail, which can be used for sharpening drills, blades of circular saws, chisel, knives and various types of planes. The value of these prefixes is, that they help to significantly save the family budget - the services of professional grinders of a similar tool, especially drills, are at a fairly high price level.
The device of such nozzles allows to carry out work at different angles, and a cylindrical nozzle is used for sharpening drills. To sharpen other tools, special devices are used.
The photo shows the original nozzle for sharpening drills of any diameter and a machine for editing circular saws. Installation of various nozzles on the drill is not special ??complexity.
Working with wood
The drill can be used not only for drilling and as a mixer, it is necessary to attach to it the special device - it turns into the original machine or a jigsaw on a tree.
Lathe
What home craftsman does not dream of owning a woodworking mini-machine, but such devices are very expensive. There is a way out - these are unique attachments to the hand drill, which have a different design and the appropriate tool for work. These devices are not suitable for serial production of carved railings and legs of coffee tables, but to use them in the country or a country house will be expedient.
The design of a turning attachment for a drill is very simple and compact, any user will be able to work - all you need is the desire and slowness of action.
jigsaw
It's hard to believe, that from an electric drill you can make a jigsaw, by design they are quite different tools, but nothing is impossible in the world. A designer was found, who invented the nozzle, which converts the rotation of the drill into reciprocating movements of the saw on the tree. Now you can use a drill to cut boards of different thicknesses, and for fans of filigree work on wood - to cut out unique patterns from multilayer plywood by means of a jigsaw.
Cutting sheet iron
There are special nozzles on the drill for cutting - they were developed by leading engineers of the companies, producing various models of drills to facilitate work with roofing material. Working on the roof does not allow you to take a lot of tools, and go down every time, to cut off the excess on stationary equipment is a hassle.
With the help of a conventional cordless drill, you can cut the desired strip from the steel sheet on the spot or remove excess. With this nozzle for cutting metal, you can cut a metal mesh, thick plastic, cut from a whole sheet of the required configuration and size of the part.
The unique device freely cuts metal, you can change the angle of the tool and work not only at right angles 90 degrees, as do ordinary scissors on metal.
On the basis of an electric or cordless drill in a small workshop you can make many useful tools with your own hands, example:
- drill accessories in the form of a drill;
- grinder;
- knife for scissors and scissors.
Some craftsmen even make homemade drills of different power, which are used during the repair of household appliances, where a standard drill would be problematic to use.
To drill the desired diameter hole in the workpiece or part, there are special nozzles-templates, which facilitate the work of a little insecure users - call them a conductor. There are already standard sizes for various operations, there are professional templates, made of steel, and for household use - from plastic or strong plastic.
