If you don’t have access to a press, you can always use the mod 7 gears from PIC, as long as you order far enough in advance. |
Ok, lets think about this for a second. How many times have you tried to dremel the pinion off the drill motor and failed personally. 0. In fact, how many times have you actually tried to dremel the pinion off of a drill motor? 0. So, you have no right to say it shouldn't be done. If you do it carefully and cover the motor, you will have no problems. It's really very simple. You are basing your opinion off of zero evidence. So please stop talking.
