As tight as it goes for mine too and a good thought on a cheap "powerful low speed1/2"" corded drill I've had the battery die on me a couple times right in the middle of grinding.
Sounds like I'll start with credit card (I have some no good pre-paid debit cards I can use) grind a little grain, and go from there. I'll probably hand crank the test batches...but not sure I want to crank through 12lbs of grain! However, I might till I find a reasonable drill/motor to power it

After one batch, you'll figure out a way to power it. It was a PITA just doing a few one gallon batches. It'll give your arm a workout.
Using wind power is the only TRUE way to mill.
I'll tell ya how its going to go...."Let me try this fun thing out milling my own grain like a pilgrim on Thanksgiving".....One hopper later...".F*ck that...where's my drill"I don't mind exercise, so I'll see how it goes. Still pretty sure I'll end up with a drill, but I want a high torque corded drill anyway, they are nice to have for bigger holes/harder materials.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions!
CHEERS!
Only way REAL brewer grinds is with a mortar and pestle..
