Title: both good and bad, and ugly for sure
Product review: I've had mine for a year and a month now, used it intermittently over that time on both wood and metal, and today the axle pin for the upper gear broke. Turns out that part is made of *plastic*! It wasn't apparent earlier because it's mostly hidden. So besides the poor quality of the iron casting, the ill-fitting and wobbly construction, the handles that are always coming unscrewed with use, and the overall cheap feel to it, a vital piece is made of flimsy thermoplastic. No excuse for that.On the "pro" side, the chuck handles up to 3/8 inch bits, something I wasn't expecting. And I'm hoping to be able to fix this break with a piece of 3/8" steel or brass stock, or maybe even a cut-off 3/8" bolt.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
