You can do this with Romex insulation as well. It works for sizing up undersized bits for use in dremels. For a drill it would work as well. In case you're broke and don't want to use your last piece of shrink tube like me lol.

Only problem is micro bits tend to snap just before penetration which is why I don't chuck them to tight. This was the drill spins instead of snapping. these hacks will work in a pinch but a adapter chuck is like 5 bucks

The chuck being able to grasp tiny objects makes it bad for grasping large objects. I have a Hilti drill that does this. The gap is on purpose.

I know everyone wants to crap on Ryobi because they are cheap and I get that But for what I paid for this set they are quite good. These have been going strong for 8-10 years now and I think the drill impact, charger, two batteries and the case were about $100. I had the (yellow) brand before but the batteries died after 5-6 years and for the cost of the batteries it didn't make sense to replace them. Put them out in the front yard with a fee sign. I love Milwaukee brand so I'll probably go with them once the green ones fail.
