A cheap fix for worn out drills. (41) 

Nice one. Done a few of these in my life. The older Makitas had a cap on the side much easier to replace. But with brushless now so much more efficient I’ve not got many brushed tools now.

A really informative and useful video for us all.

Another great video. Thanks for sharing.👍

Thanks for the video. From Cyprus

Holly shit...you found the razor!

Great vid to save trades money during these difficult times 👍🏻

I went through loads of cheap drills and eventually splashed out on a DeWalt XRP drill, so much better and more torque than most of it's competitors.

New man shed? I have a Makita drill my builder gave me that needs new brushes. I was going to do a video on it, but you've saved me a job!

Nice one James, another great vid. Its good to see Dennis Irwin is still doing a great job aswell👍

Impressive it has a back plate. My DeWalt I had to undo the entire clamshell

Nice little vid mate, thanks for taking the time. Corona beer lol.

Most modern drills now are brushless motors . Had my milwaukee 12v 7 years and my 18v about 4 years without any problems.

Nice view from the ramparts, on a clear day you can see.................

Can you do anything with worn out batteries, mine don't seem to last long and left overnight are completely flat

I'm a proud owner of a bunch of cheap drills

Other things that could have been done, is to flatten the end of the bad Brush with a piece of emery cloth, or fine sand paper, to get rid of the burnt part, but don’t go mad doing it. With a piece of emery cloth about half inch wide, and about 3-4 inch long, put it around the commutator holding it reasonably tight, spin the chuck with your other hand, to clean any rough or burnt parts, until the commutator is back to a shiny copper colour. Then, with a thin blade from a stanley knife or similar, gently run it down the slots on the commutator, blowing off any fine particles. Spray with a little “good old WD40”. Dry off any excess WD40. refit Brushes and back cover. Then listen to a lovely sounding Drill. Obviously, if the Brushes are really worn down low, then fit new ones, and still clean commutator, as above. Ta Trev.

Nice Corona beer ! :-)

Brushes not bushes! Contact cleaner is the best! 👍 from me. 🇬🇧

he gone for the Bombay bad boy

I used to have an 18v elu drill that worked when tapped with a hammer- would work until i put It down

How do you change them on the white version as no plate to take off at the rear ?

when are you back? :)

I have battery drills and tools are brushless

Hey pal, dont suppose you can give us a review on the Kewtech KT65DL or if you would recommend buying one after useing it for abit? in the market for one and been looking at it, Just dont want to invest so much into a possible mistake ta mate
