Recommendation?

This is a good idea.

Problem being, it would have to be epoxied or press fit into the handle as a screw or pin would cause issues by eating the end of your drill (screw worse than pin).

Also, not really sure how much it would really improve the system. I chucked a dowel rod into my screwgun and ran it down to a nub to simulate the wear of multiple friction fires and it obviously darkened the micarta but I didn't notice any real wear in the pivot area. I'm talking about at least 5 minutes of constant, high speed friction. I was waiting for the micarta to ignite.

That sounds like a great test, Shotty, good to go.
