Featuring three drill bits (1.0, 1.4, and 1.8 mm) with expandable capacity up to 3 mm, it includes a built-in storage compartment and an ergonomic rotating base for easy use. Perfect for pinning, magnetizing, and adding intricate details to models from Warhammer, Dungeons & Dragons, and other tabletop games. ## Description The Drill is a well known and valuable tool for the converter and modeler. Drill holes in metal, resin and plastic miniatures with the drill bits provided. Review: Solid build! - This drill has real weight and quality to it. The ball-bearing hand rest spins smoothly, so drilling stays comfortable even with steady pressure. The three bits (1.0, 1.4, 1.8mm) are sharp out of the box, and the extra chucks inside the handle cover larger bits for magnets. The included wrench keeps everything locked tight. A solid tool that should hold up for years of hobby use. Review: Top quality all the way - I initially bought a cheap hand drill here on desertcart that came with a drill bit set for like $8. Theres a few of these on desertcart, its black. The drill bits worked ok except for the smallest 2, and the hand drill was almost good, the chuck worked well but the top part that you press your hand against didn't rotate freely and felt like total garbage making drilling painful and difficult. I got the Army Painter one and played with it for about 30 minutes and this is certainly a top quality had drill. It's really nice. Theres an actual ball bearing in the hand rest and it rotates like a dream under pressure. The 3 drill bits it came with are nice and sharp and the different chucks are really nice. Also I like how it comes with a little wrench to tighten down the bits really well. Overall this tool is a joy to use unlike the other one and I'm really glad I got it. It's not the cheapest but it is probably about the best one on the market and is still a reasonable price considering it should last a lifetime if properly cared for. Well see how well it holds up overtime but it looks like it should last quite well. ## Features - Product Type :Hobbies - Package Dimensions :2.8 Cm L 6.0 Cm W 19.4 Cm H - Country Of Origin :China - Package Quantity :1 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07NNS3T87 | | Additional Features | Variable Speed | | Brand | The Army Painter | | Brand Name | The Army Painter | | Color | Model Drill | | Compatible Devices | Human Hand | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,392 Reviews | | Drill Type | Basic Drill | | Drilling Capacity Metal | 3 millimeters | | Drilling Capacity Wood | 3 millimeters | | Included Components | Drill | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 3.8"L x 2.8"W x 1"H | | Item Highlight | Model Drill for Plastic, Resin and Metal Miniatures, Fantasy Tabletop Wargaming, Roleplaying, Dnd & Warhammer 40K | | Item Type Name | accessories | | Item Weight | 2.24 ounces | | Manufacturer | The Army Painter | | Manufacturer Part Number | TL5031 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | No Warranty | | Material Type | Steel | | Maximum Chuck Size | 3 millimeters | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 1 miles_per_hour | | Maximum Torque | 0.5 N m | | Model Number | TL5031 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Torque | 0.5 N m | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** The Army Painter - **Color:** Model Drill - **Maximum Chuck Size:** 3 millimeters - **Maximum Rotational Speed:** 1 miles_per_hour - **Power Source:** Corded Electric ## Images ![Miniature and Model Drill, 1 Drill & 3 Bits for Plastic - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YwrNO7fuL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this supposed to come with 3 different drill holders? The bronze colored items? I only have one and therefore only 1 drill bit currently works.** A: Did you look in the handle for the other ones? The bottom of the handle pulls off for storage. That's where I found mine. **Q: In what country is this pin vise manufactured?** A: Just received the item. And it says Made in China on the packaging. Was expecting GB based on the manufacturer reply here 2 months ago. :-/ **Q: How hard is it to drill through metal minis to pin them with this?** A: Hi there, this Miniature drill is designed to drill holes in metal, plastic, and resin miniatures. It is designed to cause little strain on the wrist while operating. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid build! *by R***. on July 25, 2026* This drill has real weight and quality to it.

This is my second army painter product and i havent had any issues yet. It is high quality and has good weight to it, i having tested it yet, but looks promising. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Army Painter Miniature and Model Drill, Pin Vise Mini Drill Set with 3 Small Drill Bits for Plastic, Resin and Metal Miniatures, Fantasy Tabletop Wargaming and Roleplaying - The Army Painter Drill Bits, Pack of 10 Different Sizes, Ø 0.7 mm to 3.0 mm, for Use with Miniature Model Drill and Handheld Hobby Drilling Vice and Pinning Tool, Accessories for Tabletop Wargames - The Army Painter Miniature & Model Files, 3-Piece Diamond Small Metal File Set of Round File, Flat File and Triangular Metal File, Needle File Set for Metal, Resin, and Plastic Miniatures --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ni/products/137874745-miniature-and-model-drill-1-drill-and-3-bits-plastic](https://www.desertcart.ni/products/137874745-miniature-and-model-drill-1-drill-and-3-bits-plastic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Nicaragua* *Store origin: NI* *Last updated: 2026-10-14*
