  • I have a Black and Decker $30 drill. I used the cheapest drill bits K-Mart had for like $2. Do you think that is why it did not really drill deep in the wall? Is it the drill or the the drill bits that really matter? Thanks

  • @Phalastinia the bits

  • I bought a $50 drill bit set at a local tool supply and I used a couple of the bits for a few hours and they became dull.I know they are cheap but I think they should have lasted longer than that.I took them back and they wouldnt do anything,they told me if you dont use oil they wont last.

    I told them they are junk and I have bits that I have used for years and never used oil or sharpened and they work fine.I think they could have at least tried to send them back or something.

  • @themeaningoflife38 Chinese junk!! Their industrial revolution is still in its infancy.

  • Is it necessary to gradually increase the drill bit size or can you just drill a pilot hole and then go straight to the final size? I drill a lot of 1/2 inch holes and I usually step up the size 3 or 4 times before going to 1/2. Thanks

  • @themeaningoflife38 Just drill a 1/4" pilot--then the 1/2" bit.

  • you sure are truly a master.

  • ok thanks

  • Your assessment of battery powered drills at ~3:00 is absolutely hysterical, particularly

    because it is so true. I've watched it about 10 times and am still in tears.

  • What brands of drill bits do you prefer most?

  • @yipyapcyberdude He got me with that one too! It was like a sucker punch joke. I never saw it coming.

  • you have an  awesome shop there at your disposal! :-O

  • you do a lot of drilling, women must love you :)
