My husband received this Craftsman 19.2 Volt Cordless Drill for Christmas last year.  He seemed delighted and proceeded to store away his old cordless drill.  I couldn't understand what all the hoopla was about until I actually got to use it myself.I have my own corded drill for use indoors on small "girl" jobs.  I was re-doing our kitchen and I needed a drill for o...

I am not a big fan of Lowe's, or The Home Depot. As it so often happens, their specialists are either not there, when you need a question answered, or they might be making it up, on the spot. With that said and done, I shop these home improvement stores, because the prices are generally cheaper than going to a hardware store, for the larger ticket items.A few months ago, I purchased the De ...

My wife and I have given this Ryobi Cordless Drill a workout over the last few years with many remodeling jobs, and it is still going strong.  We bought it at Home Depot for around $90.  The drill came with 2 battery packs, a 1-hr. charger, 2 screwdriver bits and a plastic carrying case. This is a very heavy-duty piece of equipment and is not a lightweight.  I am a big guy and do...

I needed to drywall one ceiling in my home and was without any sort of a screw gun, short of my arm and a screwdriver. So went on one of my late night missions to the local Wally World and proceeded to look for a really inexpensive cordless drill or driver. I found this RYOBI Rechargeable 3/8 inch Reversible Cordless Drill. It includes a case and some useless bits there so heavily chromed that ...

This cordless drill is good for any shop worker, home owner, hobbiest, etc. It is fully rechargable. It comes in a durable plastic case. It comes with a set of bits for the drill. The battery pops off and on the bottom of the drill for easy charging. The drill has twenty-thr...

I have had my Black & Decker Variable Speed Drill for several years now. It was given to me as a gift. I was glad to get it. It was purchased at the Black & Decker Store. Walmart now sells Black & Decker tools also. It is a 3/8 inch electric drill. It is a 4 Amp drill and has a mid-handle design. I like that is has a nice long six foot cord, which makes it easier to use an...

I received this drill a couple of years ago as a birthday gift.  It was actually included as part of a set, which also included a circular trim saw, a fluorescent work light, a reciprocating saw, a battery charger, and a couple of 19.2 volt batteries.  Prior to receiving this drill, I had been using a Black & Decker 12 volt cordless drill/driver which served me well for several ye...

The Black and Decker 9.6 volt cordless drill is a fairly inexpensive drill that comes with a rechargable battery.  It is orange and color and comes with a nice, black carrying case to store the drill when not in use.The drill is simple to operate and runs in regular or reverse modes.  The battery holds its charge well and can be used right after charging it up.My only critique of this...

To suit its name, Mastercraft Maximum power does indeed have the power to drill! It has 400 Lbs of tourque - and can drill into the toughest of surfaces. This is the ultimate man's drill - although the price is steeper than most - you cannot put a price value on the use you will get out of it.  I have owned this drill for a couple years now - and have used it almost on a weekly basis. ...

If you've ever tried to drill a hole straight, but just can't with a hand drill, you may want to look into a precise piece of drilling equipment. The Harbor Freight 5 speed drill press will suit your needs just fine. With a cheap price, this reliable and easy to use drill press is one great deal. Some features of the Harbor Freight drill press include a 1/3 horsepower motor, five speeds...

  The Drill Doctor 750X is one of the best money and time saving devices ever for home do-it-your-selfers, and especially professional conractors.  It is a drill bit resharpener and repairer. Instead of throwing away dull, useless bits, they can be made like new again, for up to 30 times!  It has already about paid for itself just in my home use. As soon as I got it, I went throu...

Maybe i was spoiled, growing up with a grease monkey who had a DeWalt cordless drill at the ready, any time we needed to use it.  But, this is just a waste of energy and time.  I'm not sure what was paid for it, but it wasn't cheap enough!Firstly, the thing does not have the ability to go cordless, so you're unable to do as much with your project, having this cord in the w...

This drill is very easy to use.  It is great for small household projects like hanging pictures, starter holes, and small screws.  I like the fact that it has a lock feature on it.  This is good for me because I have small children and I wouldn't want them to accidentally get ahold of it and hurt themselves.  It is battery operated (it takes 4 AA batteries) and it does s...

Having been in flat for the best part of about 18 months I am ashamed to confess that up until recently my DIY excursions had been limited to painting and decorating.  That has all changed following the Christmas arrival of my Bosch Wireless Power Drill.  My poor flat will never be the same again, with the emergence of various holes all over the place!   Having already put u...

  I love buying tools that are a good value and work well.  That is why I love this electric Hitachi Drill.  It is so easy to use and has the power I need to do jobs around my house.  It is a 3/8" 6 Amp drill.  It is small and lightweight, weighing only three pounds.  The grip on it is also very comfortable.  I am currently putting installing tile in my l...

This is a Black and Decker 18V cordless drill/driver with radio charger. It has variable speeds/reverse for drilling and driving control. It comes with a 2 year warrenty. I purchased this for my husband last Christmas. I wasn't sure if he would think it was (cheesy) to have the built in radio. To my surprise, He loved this gift. He didn't waste anytime opening this gift up. Only problem...

I ordered a drill not too long ago, then realized I needed a few accessories to go with it, so I ordered the DeWalt 37 piece, drill accessory set, to dress up my new drill.There were cheaper sets, but I had already had experience with cheaper drill bits and accessories before. This time, I wanted to be more professional about it. Beside the fact, my dad was getting a little rough around the edg...

Black Friday sale ads offered a Craftmans 19.2 volt drill.  I promised myself that if I was able to beat the crowd to the tool section and get this drill, I would throw out all of my cheaply made, "good deal", cordless drills.  I was one of the lucky ones to get this drill with the 25 pc bit set for half off the regular price.  When I got home I couldn't w...

The Rigid 18v drill was a replacement unit for my Dewalt 18 volt that I had for the previous 11 years.  The yellow dewalt was a great drill until the two battery units succumbed to age. During a short trip to the Home Depot I picked up the boxed 18v Rigid drill.  This drill looked the part of a go anywhere great all around tool.As a replacement to an old trusty standby so far it is do...
