most corded drills are 2 prong now anyway. in fact out of all the power tools i use the heavy duty machinery (tablesaw, old radial arm saw, drill press) are the ones with 3 prongs. Sparky is correct in that the answer to that is using a GFCI whether it's a portable one or a wall outlet. you should never take a ground prong off a cord. we cant use any extension cords where the ground has been broken off on any jobsite for a reason.
