Roll Cage installation = i need a drill

[CageChicane]

thread title pretty much explains the situation. the funny part is is that i already have a 14.4V drill.

i am nearing completion on my project rally car. i have assembled my cage inside my car, but it requires drilling to bolt the splicing together. big suprise--drilling through metal runs the drill out of batteries very quickly. i was trying to see if someone would like to donate a drill so we could team up on it and get it done a little faster.

i have multiple titanium bits, so all i need is a drill with a power source of 14.4V or bigger.

well i have an 18V i would let you borrow but i'm not in aburn anymore. heh ....sorry. GL

[CageChicane]

thanks nick, that is exactlly what i need. the 18V i used last weekend lasted three times as long as my 14.4V. that should get the job done in one afternoon making my chances of competing in the 3/20/04 rally i lot better.

i can probly find someone to drill with me like my roommate Blake/Inspector or some random other car junkie friend. if not i will holla at your cellular. thanks again.

I'd hook you up with my 10amp Bosch hammer-drill, but I'm not in AUB anymore either. :x

[CageChicane]

i actually have class all day today. i guess i could pick it up after 5:00, but i wont be working on the car (named Steelie Dan and SD for short) today. Wednesday i will try and get the cage finished.

called your friend..no answer :(

[xamraci]

assuming a 404 number...haha...

Its a 12V...COCK BALLS...I thought it was a 14.

AHH FAHQ...I dunno if it will work...but it might...we used it to cut thru a nut on a a shock mount...and it has two batteries...I rarely see my tools they are always at Ricks...

[CageChicane]

hmmm, i guess it would help, but my 14 does about 1/3 of a hole using both batteries. and with 10 2/3 holes left a 12 wouldnt really speed the process up that much. worth a shot at least. i'll give one of you a call later today. btw, were you one of the guys working on Locke's car? and gave me a ride home?

[AadosX]

Yeh that's the guy.

[xamraci]

[CageChicane]

haha, i posted those pics on a Roll Cage help thread over on the NASIOC boards and one of the mods took them down and put a Gory Pics Warning in the thread title.

Adam, at least 3 ppl have spilt blood in my project car. it is a baptised race car.

[WickedESi]

I have a pnuematic drill if you have air.

[CageChicane]

i fogot to post that i finished the damn thing a while ago. i finally found a bit that wouldnt melt and become useless. the next day i got the seats and harnessess in with little effort. i drove it to the meeting, but i didnt really say anything about it.
