Overmolding alternatives, especially for tools

The short answer is no, and most of these tools don’t end up in a recycling-friendly supply chain at the end of their life anyways. Even if you designed something that could be disassembled, end users won’t disassemble it, most areas don’t have e-waste recycling programs, and the manufacturers (at least to my knowledge) don’t offer any type of take back or recycling incentives. The price of shipping a drill back to a manufacturer would likely be higher than the material gained back in recycling.

But that’s just our planet and the moral conundrum of being a person who makes things.
