I was thinking about this earlier today after seeing a bollard with a square hole in the front, I assumed for a 3/4" impact gun. I'm sure I've seen someone before, probably on youtube, who had a Haarken winch key chucked up in a drill too.

I had the adapter for a while, I had tried it with an 18v drill and it didnt have the torque
Interesting you say that, I'm currently making a winch using a harken winch (similar to the one in the picture) and had thought my 18v milwauke fuel drill may do the trick but maybe not. I'll have a look what milwaukee have on offer for angle drills in 18v as I've already got the batteries. That being said...I quite fancy the new dolmar 18v top handle so may be better investing in the drill you have

I think milwaukee do a drill hawg but its only 18v, not sure if it will have the torque of the makita; its got 136Nm in low gear
Yeah I've seen and torque figure seems low on the spec sheet but is rated to the same size holes. I've been reading into torque figures listed on drills and there's a difference between what's listed in the spec sheet and what you'll actually get in the field. Hard torque (maximum with no load) is what's always listed but soft torque (what is achievable under sustained load) is what counts for this sort of application and is often a fraction of the listed torque
