    Good news is that carbon brushes are cheaper than a new drill

        Doesn’t mean shit. I got a $25 powered no name screw driver and I use it every time I gotta grab a screwdriver. For years. No issues with it.

        Sadly most things are made to just die after a year and go into a landfill.

        Meh, I’d still give it a shot to look into fixing it.

        At the very least as a learning exercise.

        I’m a fan of fixing things and preventing stuff from finding their way into landfills when ever possible.

            Ah the lovely disposable tools, how I hate these so much.

            Thank you for the info.
