Right angle cordless drill with a clutch?

I need a right angle cordless drill that has a clutch. I heard that Mikita might have had a 1/2 inch version, but don't see it on their website. I need one to drive my inline skating push stick.

It also kind of has to be 18 V, since I have the power supply. I have a right angle gear that can be stuck on an ordinary cordless drill with a clutch, but it is geared 3 to 1 and that will lower the speed too much. I might try Milwaukee 49-22-8510 Right Angle Drill Attachment, but will need to know if the speed is reduced.

Too bad right angle cordless drills don't come with clutches. Milwaukee has one, but it's electrical and causes the drill to stop. That won't work here.

Thanks.

If you could do 12 V this would be cool, no?

Skating on a nice smooth flat surface is easy compared to rough terrain skating. The first time I ice skated, it was easy as pie. The first time I inline street skated, I was stunned at how relatively difficult it is. There is no comparison.

Besides, you can't speedskate on rough terrain...

Really, my son does. The worlds are held outdoors on rough terrain. Only in the USA does speed skating occur indoors.

He skates both indoor inline, and outdoor. They knock off a 50k outdoors in about 35-45 minutes. Depending on the heat.

Now get off your lazy ass and skate.

Anything is worth a look. The first question is whether it has an all or nothing speed control. A typical cordless drill is almost perfect. The components are lightweight, the battery charge is made to last, they are variable speed, and all but right-angle versions have a mechanical slipping clutch. So I just remove the chuck and cut off the handle. At that point, my problem is neatly and efficiently attaching the drill to a wheel and building a support for both the drill and the wheel, as light as possible. Using a right angle cordless drill is easy enough, but they do not have a clutch.

The clutch of a typical cordless drill sits in between the motor and the output shaft, so it gets in the way of attaching that to a fork.

Also possible are those really stubby impact drivers, but they don't have a clutch either, and the impact part is wasted.

Another option is to stick a roll bar immediately behind the wheel, so that if the push stick tries to get out from under me, the rollbar contacts the ground. But I think the mechanical slipping clutch already right there on a cordless drill would be better.

I had to take apart my Makita for some type of repair a few years ago. Being the curious type I took it apart more than I needed to. The clutch mechanism was simple and compact. It would have been pretty easy to hack the drill apart and use the clutch assembly in something else. You may want to consider that. Or you may want to just use a right angle adapter made for drills.

several choices. I know they add maybe 8 ounces of weight and bulk but are an easy add on. One is even adjustable so you are not stuck with 90 degrees. I'm not sure, since I don't skate any more (vertigo) and will never use a push stick, why you would want a clutch when a roll bar would be robust, simple, and cheap. That said, I like the idea of a clutch, it seems cool. So maybe you could pick up a drill at a thrift store or Harbor Freight And get the clutch out. Can you machine an aluminum housing for the clutch assembly? I don't know what your capabilities are, machine tool wise and so on, but I think the Makita clutch would fit into the drive wheel itself. That way it might be easily adjustable and look cool too. Eric
