Built a greenhouse & fixed/built many things with this set
Update 1/2017 The drill is still going strong. I broke a few drill bits when I accidentally hit concrete. This is expected as the drill bits aren't made for concrete so it's entirely my fault. Don't expect the drill bits to be extremely durable if you use them often or for years, as I have, but they're definitely for small everyday things. Sometimes when the drill hits harder surfaces, the drill bits get a bit stuck in the surfaces and they loosen from the drill. Update 12/2015 My dad and I used this drill set to build a greenhouse with wood and polycarbonate from the ground up and install the shelves. The battery lasts for a long time and we only have to charge once a day after a whole day of use. It's a bit banged up from all the use and abuse, but it's still going strong and has become my dad's favorite drill. He barely uses his corded drill anymore. I think he's claimed it as his own now ... The spade bits were used to drill into 4"x4" wood for the greenhouse frame to make holes for 1/2" hex bolts. The different sized drill bits proved to be useful for the different sized screws we used for the greenhouse. Since they aren't as sharp as the more expensive brands, they do take a tiny bit longer to drill through certain things, but for those with less experience, the slower equipment allows more time for precision. My dad has limited vision so the drill and drill bits give him time to steady his hands and also allow him time to see where the drill is going while he's on. *** Instead of asking for jewelry, I asked for this drill kit as a Valentine's Day present. It's hands down the best drill I've used. It's small yet powerful. I have tiny hands and I can hold the drill comfortably in my hand without getting tired. The drill bits are easy to switch out and tightening it doesn't require a lot of strength. I use this drill on almost all my DIY projects around the house, like fixing my Roomba, installing ceiling fans and installing curtain rods. The only thing I don't like about this kit is it doesn't have a box to hold all the drill bits. The bag has no compartments to keep the drill bits separate. I keep the sharp kits in a smaller bag and throw that in with the rest of the tools. But the con isn't enough to decrease the rating. Included are: Cordless drill 1 battery & charger 5 spade bits (1/4, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4 and 1) 10 metal drill bits (1/16, 5/64, 3/32, 7/64, 1/8, 9/64, 5/32, 11/64, 3/16 and 1/4) 4 hole saw drill bit (1-1/4, 1-1/2, 1-3/4 and 2-1/8) & arbor 32 screwdriver bits (flat head, Phillips, square, nut, slotted, Torx) 1 high torque screwdriver 4 nut driver bits (3/16, 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2) 1 knife 1 hammer 1 flat head screwdriver 1 Phillips screwdriver 1 needle nose plier 1 slip joint plier 1 adjustable wrench 1 tape measure
