The main advantage of the cordless drill driver over its powered partner is the freedom to be utilized anywhere, the downside of a battery drill is the harder you work the drill the quicker the battery runs out, so you have to make sure that you are buying the right voltage cordless drill driver for the job, there is no point in investing money into a 12 volt drill and expecting it to be able to drill fifty 16mm holes from one set of batteries because it won’t.

There are a lot of types of drill on the market place today, rotary drills, drill drivers, hammer drills, SDS drills manufactured for drilling brick, concrete, masonry, metal and wood. You may chose cordless or electric, when choosing an electric drill there are two voltages, 110 and 240. 110 volt power tools need a power tool transformer and are utilized mainly on building sites, 240 volt tools for home use could be utilized with a RCD circuit breaker for safety. Cordless drill drivers give more flexibility due to the fact that you do not have a mains lead to contend with.

The least expensive drill drivers run at a single speed, but many have two fixed speeds: 300 rpm and 800 rpm. A slide switch or trigger lets you select high or low speed. These drill drivers are ideal for many light-duty operations. The low speed is for driving screws, the high speed for drilling holes. For more refined carpentry and repair tasks, chose a drill that has the same two-speed switch and a trigger with variable speed control that lets you vary the speed from 0 rpm to the top of each range. And should you do more hole drilling than screwdriving, look for more speed, 1000 rpm or higher at the top end.

Accessories for drill drivers include drill bits for drilling wood, metal, ceramic, glass, and masonry. In addition to drill bits other accessories include hole saws, screwdriver bits, files, rasps, and sanders.

Nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) batteries represent the latest breakthrough in batteries. They're smaller and run longer than standard nickel-cadmium (Nicad) batteries. NiMH batteries also pose less of a hazard when it comes to disposal than Nicads because they don't contain any cadmium, which is highly toxic. Makita, Bosch, Hitachi and DeWalt offer NiMH batteries, and other manufacturers will soon produce these power cells too.

Check out drill drivers in DIY centres noting their weight and balance. Try out vertical and horizontal drilling positions to see how comfortable you feel. Contoured grips and rubber cushioning on some models make them very comfortable, even when you're applying direct palm pressure. While you're at it, see how easy it is to change clutch settings and operate the keyless chuck.

Drilling a hole isn't rocket science but it may be quite frustrating should you don't know how to do it. For example, should you try to use a wood auger bit to drill a hole in metal you'll ruin the bit, score the metal and possibly injure yourself in the process. Drilling a hole correctly, however, is something you may easily accomplish with a little practice.

To drill a satisfactory hole in any material, the correct type of drill bit must be utilized; it must be utilized correctly and be sharpened as suitable. Many jobs around the house require a hole of some kind to be drilled - whether it is putting up a shelf, building a cabinet or hanging a light fitting. For basic requirements, a set of high-speed steel twist drill bits and some masonry drill bits will probably be sufficient for the average handyman. But for more sophisticated jobs/material, others drill bits will be required - perhaps larger, or manufactured for a specific material/purpose. Good quality drill bits can be expensive, so take care of them, keep them in a case or box should possible, rather than allowing them to roll around loose in a toolbox where the cutting edges may be damaged.

Learning how to sharpen drill bits is cost effective, it better to keep a bit sharp by occasional sharpening rather than waiting until it becomes really blunt. A sharp bit cuts better with less effort whether utilized in a power or hand drill. A sharp bit will also give a cleaner hole.

DIY Safety tips:

Never overload a plug with too a lot of plugs or adaptors. Don't allow cables and flexes to become kinked or frayed. Make sure plugs are undamaged and tightly closed with no loose connections and that cord grips are tightened. Make Sure plugs are correctly fused. Fuses protect cables and flexes from the effects of overheating caused by short circuits and overload.
Wear protective clothing including safety goggles, gloves and dust mask when working with potentially hazardous materials such as glass or spray paint. It is also advisable to wear a mask when working in a dusty environment e.g. sawing wood or MDF.

Take extra care when removing artex or textured paint from walls as these materials may contain asbestos. Safety precautions must be followed when handling and disposing of asbestos. Contact your local environmental health department for advice.

Be sure to double check the safety and condition of any working platform. Make sure that it may not move or give way. Never use ladders on top of working platforms.
