Hassle-free fast drilling

I used to have a drill like this. But this one was lighter and thinner. This one is pretty heavy in comparison. However, it's not too difficult to manage. The kit comes with a key that wasn't in my previous one. The advantage of a key is that you can lock the drill more securely and there is less risk of the drill slipping while drilling. The downside is that the lining keys are the part that likes to go in the same place as the missing socks. I would like them to produce them with a loop or hole so you can tie them to a drill. But you can get a spare key if you lose the one that came with the drill. The teeth of this drill bit fit well without too much play. Of course, there are limits to what you can use this drill for. I wouldn't use it on masonry or metal. If I need to drill a lot of holes at once or need a template (e.g. cabinet hinges) I would use a drill. But the most common home use is a hole or two in a ply, wood studs and drywall, and this drill punches a hole in those before you can find your drill, charge or plug it in and set it up. It's small enough to fit in a litter box, so you don't have to go to the workshop or garage to get a "real drill". Someone else said the beats that came with it were bad. I figured I might need to get some better parts out of my tool box. But I tried the ones that came with the kit, and for only a hole in the ply and a bobby pin, they did a great job. Probably not for ages, but drills aren't hard to find. When I last bought an electric drill, a spirit level was attached to the machine. I think that's a very good idea and I'll see if I can find a sticky spirit level to attach to the shank of this drill bit. This drill is a very good gift for those who are traveling from home to their first apartment or house. Many small projects that I put off until I had a drill are now done with this little drill.

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
Cons
