The drill bit from my hole saw arbor, which is only about 10 years old, failed while drilling the terminal cup hole

resulting in this damage Sad

Just prior to that I discovered my old friend the corded, torque-out-to-there, Bosch 1/2" drill, purchased in 1997, was dead, R.I.P.

The trigger mechanism is broken and the parts are a little more than half the cost of a new drill, so...

OTOH, I have a Rockwell "Dome Top" router that's at least 30 years that keeps on truckin'. Just used it, in fact, to rout the ports in the black Formica rear panel.

I don't know what's going downhill faster, me or the tools Laughing
