I need help looking for a drill size that is smaller than the standard GW drill bit size.

The reason is that I bought a Ectros with HMG from the Infinity range and I broke the bottom part of the staff that is below the hand.

I tried using super glue and Greenstuff to reattach but it does not work with me.

I compared the staff width to my GW drill bit size and I need a drill that can fit into GW drill handle and is smaller than the standard GW drill bit.

Before anyone asks I cannot find the complaint code for the model.

Tried a hardware store?

Alternatively, measure the staff width, figure out what gauge that is and google it, see if you can find somewhere that sells it.

Yep, hardware or home improvement store. They'll have a bunch.

I referred to the standard GW drill bit for reference because I am looking a drill size that is smaller than it since I have no idea how to measure it.

A specific size would help a lot.

I don't know what the "standard" GW bit size is either, but I do know if you take it, or the staff, to a hardware store, you can compare it to all of the many bits they will have.

just bring the drill bit into homehardware/lowes or whatever hardware store is closest and ask them where they might keep some smaller, 99% of the time a guy will walk over with you and even help you look on the shelf

I went to measure one but my digital measuring caliper thingos have a flat battery :( This is why you buy a vernier caliper instead, lol. But it seems pretty close to 1mm. If you take it to a hardware store they can probably measure it for you, or if you know anyone with tools, just borrow a vernier caliper, dial caliper or micrometer to measure it yourself.
