My husband knew how to do EVERYTHING and I was always the helper. He passed away 15 years ago and I've wanted to do so much, but had no clue. I remember purchasing a drill and bits, then couldn't figure out how to make it work. I was miserable and tucked it away "somewhere". Your show makes this hope possible. Thank you much!

As an elderly person, I have just purchased my first cordless drill driver due to weaker hands and arms and your video was great to help me understand how to use the different settings etc. Well done.

I'm an older widow who moved recently. I had bought a deWalt hand drill, and figured out some of it. Understanding the different pressures is new to me. Handymen have been hard to find, don't keep appointments. I have a lot of minor projects impending. Now I can continue installing my new curtain hardware. Thank you!!! - Mrs. JD

As a single gal living alone, your tool tutorials are so valuable. I bought a drill to put up curtain rods, couldn’t figure out how to use it, so I haven’t had it out since then. Now I’m inspired! Thanks for the lesson on what the parts are and how to use it. ❤

No seriously, this was so helpful. I’ve had a drill for months now and when I ordered it I thought operating it’d be pretty straight forward, but boy was I wrong. So, it’s been sitting in my garage and I’ve just been putting off my planned uses for it. Now, I can use my drill!! Thank you so much 😊

[lorifranklin]

I would love to see more basic videos on how to use different tools and also how to use them to do basic repairs or things around the house for novice users. Thank you, your video is great for us beginners.

I wanted my own cordless drill for fear of breaking my husband's, and when I went to the store was so overwhelmed. I bought the drill and didn't even realize I should buy the other stuff like the bits, lol. Thanks so much for your perfect paced drill introduction video. Instant subscriber. 👍

[patphillips]

Had given up on using my new drill after watching several tutorial videos. Yours made it so easy to understand, thank you.

[nicholekennedy]

Oh my gawd I absolutely love how easy you explain how to use power tools and cutting wood. Most men won’t let you touch there tools which leaves us no option to even ask for help. So we turn to YouTube and I can’t thank y’all enough for the toots y’all do. I’ve asked something so simple as how do you get wood to actually come together and I never got an answer . So thanks so much .

[RonDonProductions]

I just bought my first drill and struggled to get the bit into the chuck. This tutorial was very helpful, thanks!

[mariannedressler]

Yes to video on drill bits!! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this video.

[simply]

Thank you for this 😩. I can do chemistry and trigonometry but my new drill had me confused 🤣

[mariab]

My husband was a master with every tool….I never watched him. He passed away a year ago and now I need to learn as opposed to paying someone for every single thing I need done. I would love to learn which drill bits to use for what. This video was great!

[bettygraf]

Thank you for your sequence of information. I appreciate the STEP BY STEP info! I am a novice. I didn't know that I needed to match the screw to the bit. No other site mentioned that, but YOU DID!! So, now, my drill bit can push the screw right into the wood, rather that spinning around!! Thank you AGAIN.

[gokobayny]

Thank you I’ve owned this tool for several years and was winging it every time. I don’t need to use it very often but I now feel you gave me a much better understanding of how to use it. Great job!

Few doubts, Plz reply.
1. Is cordless drill good for making holes on masonry and concrete?. In our region houses are made of bricks and concrete.
2. You have shown drill bits for screwing. Should I buy a different set for drilling holes?. I want to use the screws that comes with the plastic thing which goes into the ole first.
3. Is there a danger of drill bit getting off and injuring?.
4. How long the normal battery lasts on the higher torque setting?.
Your video is much clear and better than the 1.6M viewed one in YouTube.

Just moved into an older home. Trying to do most repairs and decor as a DIY so your videos have been educational and a real money saver!!! Thanks and keep up the good work!

[alixmedler]

Thanks SO much! I just moved across the country for grad school and this is the first time I haven't had my dad around to help me put my furniture together. You made it so clear and simple! Now to assemble my desk....😄

[rebajane]

Hi Guys, I'm a widow and never used anything but a hammer before so I was lost. I just bought a new Dewalt drill and some drill bits the salesman pointed out to me. When my chuck swallowed my chuck I thought I was missing a part. Thanks for the tutorial.

[jione]

Thanks. I am 60 and can't find anyone to do a simple job, so I bought a drill that I don't know how to use. This was very helpful since mine is cordless too. I always appreciate these types of videos that make me more self sufficent.
