best way to get an awl in/on your Charge/Wave?

[Mextreme]

Here are the opinions I tried:
Rebar awl, direct drop in. You decide what to give up for it.
Long MUT bit grinded down to awl, works ok, carrying the awl bit sperately was another challenge itself.
Grind down can opener to awl, done this few days ago I am pretty happy with the result. The awl is a bit short comparing to rebar's, but I feel it drills better. Maybe because I put a good edge on it.

You are saying I can drop the eye glass bit driver and substitute with rebar awl? That would be a perfect swap for me.

If you remove the plier rest to accommodate the length of the awl then yes.

Edit: sometimes the tolerances are such that one has to thin down the awl a little to allow the handles to fully close.

Check out the Knifeless Charge thread for pics of the small bit driver replaced by a ground down driver awl.

Thanks!

I grind down a can opener to an awl, that would be a direct replacement to the mini bit holder, it is awlwave.

A Rebar awl dropped in place of the can opener.

Works perfectly and the wave closes fine.

I have another one for either the charge AL or the ALX. I need to device which I've is more useful.

Rebar awl fits.  I pulled out the pliers rest to get the Phillips and awl to lie flat, so handles can close.  I mostly use the awl for drilling holes in soft wood.
