    Applying heat to the bit from a blowlamp should create a little expansion in the jaws of the chuck for the bit to be removed after cooling.

    How about just removing the snap ring that holds it all together?

    Spray WD40 on it and leave it a while.

    Barneysmom. I think that you will find that a battery drill is just as much an electric drill as a mains powered one.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
