Re: pic: Just a few parts left

This inspired me. So.... I walked to the OSH in the shopping center next to my office and found this $9.99 junky little "KC Professional" 3.6v cordless screwdriver with 21 piece tool bit set. I figured, "What the heck, ten bucks".


When I pulled the 6 screws out that held it together, what should I find but a RS380 driving the whole thing. It has a 3 stage planetary transmission on it. (I'm not going to be using it for much of a load, so it should be "fine")
I can literally just pull the pinion off this bad boy and press it onto our RS395 and reassemble it with very little mods at all. I'll post pictures once I get it finished. That should be this afternoon. In the mean time, here is a teaser.
