Drill chucks can sometimes prove to be a bigger pest than any other tool-part in the shop. It is said that we all shouldn't "sweat the small stuff," but it seems the "small stuff," like our drill chucks, can be the most frustrating of all. Here are some tips to help you keep your cool and get results around a stubborn chuck.

Chuck Removal

Simply removing your drill chuck can sometimes be an insurmountable struggle. Lear to simplify this process with a few quick and easy steps.

-- First, make sure the tool's gear box is set in low, and that the clutch is fully engaged.

-- Fully open the chuck, and you will find a small screw down in the middle of it (sometimes this screw, however, is missing, but don't fret it is easily replaceable, and not necessary to get the chuck off).

-- Remove the screw. Keep in mind that the screw has left-handed threads, and the chuck has right-handed threads.

-- Once the screw has been removed put the small end of a large allen wrench inside the chuck's jaws.

-- Place the tool on its side and, with a hammer, safely hit the long end of the allen wrench counter-clockwise until the chuck comes loose. Some chucks are on very tightly, so be patient and keep tapping.

-- If hammer-tapping doesn't free the chuck, remove the allen wrench and spray some WD-40 down into the inside of the chuck. Let the lubricant set in the chuck for at least one hour.

-- After waiting, reinsert allen wrench and resume hammer-tapping.

-- Repeat lubrication and hammering process until chuck breaks free.

This may take a few attempts, but that pesky chuck is sure to come loose with some good, old-fashioned deliberation.

Seeking Closure?

It's very common for drill chuck to toggle slightly out of place and not completely close. There is a screw inside your drill chuck there is a screw that holds the chuck in place. On occasion these rascally screws are know to wiggle loose from their threads stopping the chuck from making a complete closure. There is a simple solution: Simply locate a screwdriver that will fit the screw's head, and tighten counter clockwise. A mere twist of the wrist should keep your drill chuck closing tightly and securely.

If your wobbly chuck problems proceed, the chuck's threads or the screw itself could be stripped. There are also other factors that contribute to an incomplete closure between drill and chuck. For instance- your chuck could be locked up or rusted, or the fingers on the inside of the chuck could have slipped or broken. At this point it is best to take the drill to a service center in your area for a professional inspection.

Best of luck, and hopefully these tips will help you to not "sweat the small stuff" both on the job and in the shop.

Dad, stay at home - those gut wrenching words

When I heard the words, "dad, stay at home" from my son, the first time, my heart broke.  Knowing, I had to leave his sad face and head off to work just crushed me.  That small voice saying "dad, stay at home" were some of the worst words he ever said to me.

Many of you father's know what its like to hear those words from your child and also have the same broken heart.  What would life be like if you could spend more time with your loved ones instead of slaving away at the office.

I experienced the same question in my head.  How could I find a way to make enough money to cover the household expenses and be home at a decent hour, or better yet, never leave the home?  I have friends that work out of their home offices and they always seemed to have the best family life.  They had an opportunity to mix in personal life with work life with ease.

That sent me on a mission.  I never wanted to hear "dad stay at home" again from my boy.  What I found was extraordinary.  There are opportunities out there where have the ability to have an at home business, or work from home.  Some of the at home businesses are even easy to start.

In fact, with a little hard work, I found I could start my own home business, get it running and then have passive income coming in.  This way, I could spend as much time as I wanted with my family.

There are many different opportunities out there to be a stay at home dad or work from home dad.  Sorting through all the opportunities is difficult however.  I did make a few missteps as I went and tried a few things that did not pan out.  But eventually, and with a little experience I was able to set up an online business that did have passive income to pay the bills.

Point is, I am here to tell you that it is possible with a little elbow grease and perseverance, you too can become a stay at home dad.  But it always helps to have someone to help navigate through the waters and help to not step on the landmines.

I have created the websites below to help navigate through those waters so you wont have to waste time doing it yourself.  That way, you will never have to hear "dads, stay at home" again!

Mustang Cobra help please?

Well i posted a question a few days ago reguarding my mustang being shot full of water from a truck hauling behind past me. The enging wont start or anything i did all the checks and it all seemed to point to electrical problems. But today i went out there with my socket wrench set, go under the car and attempted to turn the crank manually and it would not budge in any direction. From what i hear this means the engine is dead. Is this true?

WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND you get your car on a flat deck or if its not lowered on a tow truck and get it to a pro shop.

its seized and you have 1 or more components (starter, intake, alternator) that are not functioning....

if you were driving through a flooded roadway and a passing vehicle created a wake or wave there is definite possibility your engine bay was flooded (what the f'k would you be doing on a flooded roadway in a cobra??)
and if the engine bay was flooded-even for a moment - its very likely the engine has been waterlocked (hydo lock) ....best case you have no spark and possibility of bent rod, cracked piston, or broken rod bearing.....worst case you have that plus a cracked block.

if water has entered the intake via a cold air intake or stock intake, and been introducted into the combustion chamber - it will not compress thereby creating so much pressure that damage to the internals or block results.

.....if you want to determine extent of the damage before you head for the pro shop, pull your heads, drop the pan.....all of these things will have to be done in any event.....BUT tearing down an engine requires a degree of wrenching skills and good tools.

i think continued efforts to start your engine, may only create a greater problem.....

possibility of electrical problems (particularly since you are getting no spark exists.....)but if it was my car and engine bay had been flooded i would consider hydro lock as greatest potential for engine failure....(one of the reasons my car which is lowered and has a cold air intake....does not go out on heavy rain days).
