Nemo Cordless Drill for Special Ops

[flair woodworks]

Apparently, we aren't the most demanding tool users out there.

Pressurize the drill with air, and you can work in saltwater down 100 metres.  Designed for special forces, it is painted black without trim to make it easier to conceal.  Don't drop it in the ocean, or there won't be a happy ending to Finding Nemo.

Only $1720 according to this site.

There was some wobble of the drill bit in one of their videos I watched...

They've actually got three versions of this tool, and an angle grinder.  http://nemopowertools.com/en/products/

I've had a chance to play with their pool n spa version of the cordless drill.  Works very well for it's intended purpose.  Yeah, there's a bit of wobble to the chuck, not a precision device.  Replacement chucks are only $15, they expect them to wear and corrode apparently.

18v battery, the air pump pressurizes the casing to keep water out of the tool. 

I do a lot of pool and pond work, I'll probably be ordering the Divers version.  Thought about just the pool n spa version, but it's only good to 5m deep, compared to 50m for the divers version.  I'd rather pay an extra $150 and have the capability.
