I wore out a US made hardware store label 110v hand drill

Ummm... this is a hand drill:

What you want is an electric drill:

Perception is everything.  Just buy some "Made in USA" labels and
stick them on everything.  Nobody checks if the sticker is authentic.

OK. I actually own a brace and also a geared hand drill.
Given to me, never used either.
 
In the shop it's 'hand' rather than one of the drill
presses. Sorry to be unclear.
 
That one is used mostly for wire and nylon wheels to clean
metal. The armature contact, after two brush sets, was
reduced to nothing.

 
 
 
 
While IO was still under the effects of the untreated epilpsy, I bought
new battery drills. None of them lasted more than a year.
 

Sounds unlikely if it was just diy? If one was building a house ie using
the drill all day and every day maybe just if it was consumer grade.
