    I dislike cordless tools because I don't use them often enough.

    One thing that I have found works well is to put the charger on a timer to charge one hour or so a day.

    If it is on the charger all the time it will over charge and if it is not on the charger it will be dead when you need it.

    One hour a day will not over or undercharge it for "normal" use.

She has hobbies & put together some furniture. I don't want to ask her for it back, I don't want to embarrass her. I just think she forgets about it with her husband & 3 kids on her mind.

    Now I do have a drill with a cord, but everybody knows how convenient a cordless is. My computer chair broke underneath me last night,, no jokes necessary. So I was thinking about the drill all day.

    Well, I didn't want to bother her, so I went to Home Depot & bought another. Maybe when she does return it, I should just let her keep it & give her the charger that came with it.


    Sorry, just had to get this off my chest.


    New drill;

    Sorry to hear you have some really nice jeans :-), don't know what to tell you, one way you feel like an ass and the other you feel like a sucker.
    What part broke on you chair, don't think you need a new chair.
    I'll guess the pneumatic cylinder? I know where you can get most parts and its not your other home

    Since you've purchased a new drill motor and apparently a charger for it, I'd recommend taking the charger for the old one to the neighbor, knock on the door and say something like this:

    I know how much you've appreciated that cordless drill so I'm giving it to you. OH, you will need this charger to keep it going.

    If she starts to say Oh I forgot to bring it back or WHATEVER just tell her that you'd purchased a new one so she can keep the other one.

    Perhaps, just PERHAPS, she'll understand and take it to heart that in the future she needs to return borrowed things in a 'Timely Manner'.

    It's just a thought my friend.
    I have tried that and it back fired it was like feeding a stray.
    But hopefully it does work.

    It's not one of those newmatic chairs, it's a lawn chair I use. I got tired of those expensive chairs over the years, none lasted. So I use a comfortable lawn chair.

    Well expensive they can be , the hardest or impossible partvis an arm wrest , but the cylender snaps in half without warning.
    Lawn chair , seems that it would be a little to low to be comfortable.
