Does anyone know if they still make a drill with a forward and reverse just using the trigger switch? I had one many years ago when I was doing my apprenticeship/

 

[sunnybob]

how do you make it reverse? push the trigger forwards?

Never seen one of them things.

 

[Toby29]

Push the trigger in at the bottom reverse just touch top of the trigger

Nope, never seen or heard of that before.

Years ago I used to use an electric tap driver, that had some sort of two way clutch, so that when you pushed it drove the tap clockwise, and when you pulled it wound it back out again. Easy way to break taps, but pretty handy if you've a lot of holes to thread.

I have a small Hitachi driver that works on a forward and reverse rocker switch on the main body, have used drills in it, but its very slow for drilling, perfect for driving in a screw.

Looks something like this: https://hitachi-powertools.co.uk/powert ... ers/db3dl2

Aldi were selling 3.6V drivers 3 months ago with the trigger you describe. I bought one in fact for light duty work because they weigh next to nothing and have great Torque. Very handy for driving screws above head height. Didn't check their drills though.
