Does anyone out there use an electric drill to run their MM3? I can't see how it would work, unless there's some huge-ass drill chuck I need to get. I don't mind cranking by hand, it's good exercise ... but I'm curious, I thought taking off the handle and running it with a drill was actually a thing...
 
Yes, most people use a drill. The Malt Muncher 3 had a 12 mm drive shaft, which means you need a drill with a 1/2" chuck.

What a fabulous resource! Thank you!
 
Just to add, I have this mill and use an electric drill. It's what I would call an average sized drill, and there's no trouble getting it to fit. Only used the mill like 3x, but quite like it.
