Repairing a chuck in a hand drill?

Jewelry Discussion
1

I have a plain non electric hand drill by a company called Schroder
made in Germany. In the chuck part the 3 teeth have moved in the
chuck. Is this something repairable ? Can or should I replace just
the chuck ? Buy a new drill ?

Thanks in advance for any help

You can buy the replacement Schroder chucks heRe: just choose the
size and match the thread. Schroder chucks commonly have M9 x 1mm and
M13 x 1mm threads, depending on the brace size.

You might be able to just completely replace the chuck. If it is of
German manufacture the thread the chuck is on is probably metric so
you might have to order from the mfgr.
