The Army Painter, Miniature & Model Drill - Pin Vise Hobby Drilling with Three Bits for Tabletop Roleplaying, Boardgames, and Wargames Miniature Modelling (Model Drill)

I initially bought a cheap hand drill here on amazon that came with a drill bit set for like $8. Theres a few of these on Amazon, its black. The drill bits worked ok except for the smallest 2, and the hand drill was almost good, the chuck worked well but the top part that you press your hand against didn't rotate freely and felt like total garbage making drilling painful and difficult. I got the Army Painter one and played with it for about 30 minutes and this is certainly a top quality had drill. It's really nice. Theres an actual ball bearing in the hand rest and it rotates like a dream under pressure. The 3 drill bits it came with are nice and sharp and the different chucks are really nice. Also I like how it comes with a little wrench to tighten down the bits really well. Overall this tool is a joy to use unlike the other one and I'm really glad I got it. It's not the cheapest but it is probably about the best one on the market and is still a reasonable price considering it should last a lifetime if properly cared for. Well see how well it holds up overtime but it looks like it should last quite well.

While it does not come with a 3mm bit, the included chucks include a 3mm chuck, so I can use a 3mm bit purchased separately with ease. I had to discover the chucks by myself, they're inside the handle-- guess I didn't read the description closely enough. I am magnetizing Warhammer 40k shoulders and wrists, and this tool is indispensable and easy to use. Well made and affordable, as should all things be.

I think I got a revised and newer edition model that does not match the item pictured. It came with a plastic tube with extra bits. And the palm rest pops off and there are extra different sized chucks stored in the handle. Compared to my cheap pin vise the was made of soft metal that ground to metal dust even when oiled, the ball bearings alone are worth the upgrade. I have had trouble using a 3/32" diameter drill bit due to none of the chucks fitting and tightening down enough. Works up to 7/64" diameter, and works for 5/64" and 1/16". I don't know the diameters of the bits are are included sorry >< but there are 5 total, all different sizes, and all smaller than 5/16", maybe they are metric.

Inexpensive but quality tool.

As expected

You get what you pay for! Way better than the other cheaper ones. The removable swivel top with room for storage is a nice touch. Very comfortable in the hand. Works great!

Like a lot of otherswith poor reviews, missing parts and obviously used. I'm not sure if this is an Amazon issue or an Army Painter issue.

Bought for my Warhammer hobby, using to hollow barrels and create secure base connections. Works easily, with no strain on hands or wrist. Comes with 3 sizes of drill bits, decent selection to start with. Very pleased to have this tool in my kit.

Good quality but hard to use on harder plastics

Magnifico, se le ve de muy buena calidad. El boliche trasero, que gira en tu palma parece que lleva un rodamiento super suave.

Si vede subito che è un buon prodotto, robusto e funzionale. L'ho usato da subito per del piccolo modellismo in legno, svolge egregiamente il suo lavoro. Fornito di 3 punte e 4 mandrini custoditi nel trapano stesso.

Perfect for making holes in miniatures. Easy use with three drill bits of different sizes. Quite a nice bit of kit that feels generally well made. Would definitely recommend for the price.

Very easy to use. Drill quality feels good and hasn't worn down even after repeated use.
