A quick-release arbor is adapted for a cylindrical hole saw that has a bottom wall having a threaded central aperture and opposing indexing holes. The arbor has a central hexagonal passage with opposing key slots passing therethrough and a threaded hole saw fitting axially aligned with the hexagonal passage. The arbor has a hexagonal pilot shaft securely holding a pilot drill bit and intermediate opposing keys forming a position lock. The pilot shaft is adapted to freely pass through the passage. Within the arbor is a button chamber that is transverse to the hexagonal passage with a rear wall. A biased button is located within the button chamber having upper and lower cuts outs to permit the pilot shaft to freely pass through the cut outs of the button when the button is depressed and having rear pocket to capture one of the pilot shaft opposing keys when the button is released.

Quick-release arbor for hole saw

A 360&#xb0; rotatable drill shear attachment has a housing with forward extending shear blades and a rearward extending drive bit connectable to a chuck of a portable hand drill. A cowling is fixed to a mounting flange and rearward of the shear housing protectively covering the drive bit and drill chuck. A circular clamp is rotatable and securable to the mounting flange. Left and right rails slide-ably adjust lengthwise and pivotally extend from the clamp along the left and right sides of the drill body to a point beyond the rear of the drill body to a drill rear end. A connector adjustably is fastened to the rear ends of the rails to adjustably draw the ends together for securing the shear attachment to the drill body. The clamp may be loosened to rotate the mounting flange of shear attachment, and shear blades, within the clamp for shear blade orientation anywhere along a 360&#xb0; axial arc. After which, the clamp is tightened for safe, one-handed operation of the drill with the shear attachment and shear blades oriented in the desired direction.
