Ever burned up your mill drill?

How long will it take before beer stops tasting like burning motor?

I burnt up two older ones before I got the beefy harbor freight one for thirty bucks. It is still going strong one and a half years in

Same here. Here is the 1/2" HF drill that I'm using:

Over a year, lot's of grain, and still going strong.

$10 at a pawn shop for a dewalt hammer drill that lasted 2 years ain't too bad...but the smell sure is!
