I think with open sides on the drill there is no way it lifts the water up.

I do think people overreact with water and electricity, why, i had a nice  
waterfall all over my PC plugin cards several times with no damage ;-)


Nah, i understand what you mean. Maybe i make a washer on the drill to  
deflect any water outward, and the "tank" should have high enough sides to  
catch it.

I'll try now, it will be less work than thiking about it for hours!
