Sometimes you see a tool and know it is going to be so useful for fixing and repairing vintage toys. And this Tamiya Electric Handy drill was one of those. I saw it a few months back online and have been trying to track it down since then. Finally I found it on my recent trip to Tokyo and today it's time to get the kit built ( yes it's a kit ), and see how well it works.
