Power tools have revolutionised the way in which we undertake our day-to-day DIY work and cordless drill drivers have become an essential component of all DIY tool kits. Drills have proven to be invaluable for many maintenance and repair tasks around the house and no power tool collection is complete without one.

The Angle Drill is manufactured for use in tight areas. Their main feature is the angled neck. Unlike a conventional drill, an Angle Drills profile allows the drill to be utilized at arms length and in areas where the body of a drill would not allow it access. While they may not be able to deliver the power and torque of a conventional drill they are incredibly handy tools, especially around the home. An example would be drilling a hole on the inside of a drawer to mount a handle, positioning a normal drill could be awkward but the body of an Angle Drill would rise out of the drawer leaving plenty of space for the operators hand.

Any tool could feel like an extension of your hand. The tool may feel great while standing in the store aisle but try to imagine what it may feel like after a few hours of use. While in the shop make sure all controls are convenient, and check to see if the forward/reverse and high/low speed switches in particular are easy to use.

A reversible drill is a must should you plan on using the drill with screwdriver bits. Torque is the term utilized to describe the rotational force exerted by the drill. Today's higher voltage cordless drill drivers may provide nearly the same amount of torque as a corded model. Yes, bigger is better, but increased power almost always brings increased size and weight. Unless you plan on drilling with large self-feeding or auger bits, consider a more compact model with a lower torque. Because there is no industry standard for measuring torque, be aware that you cannot compare the torque ratings of drill drivers from one brand to another.

Lithium ion batteries are commonly utilized in consumer electronics and tools such as drill drivers. They are currently one of the many popular types of battery for portable electronics, with one of the best energy-to-weight ratios, no memory effect, and a slow loss of charge when not in use. In addition to uses for consumer electronics, lithium-ion batteries are growing in popularity for defence, automotive, and aerospace applications due to their high energy density. However certain kinds of mistreatment may cause Li-ion batteries to explode.

Lithium-ion batteries can rupture, ignite, or explode when exposed to high temperature environments, for example in an area that is prone to prolonged direct sunlight. Short-circuiting a Li-ion battery can cause it to ignite or explode, and as such, any attempt to open or modify a Li-ion battery's casing or circuitry is hazardous. Li-ion batteries contain safety appliances that protect the cells inside from abuse, and, should damaged, can cause the battery to ignite or explode.

For many applications around the house a small set of common twist bits may normally serve your needs. You'll also need a drill to turn the bits and some tools to measure and mark where you want the hole. This includes a ruler or tape measure, a pencil or scribe and should working with metal, a centre punch and a hammer. The first and most important step is marking where you want the hole. You can also use a scribe on wood or plastic. Sometimes even a pencil may work well. As long as you can see your marks and they don't rub off when working your material it doesn't normally matter. Without a punch mark, the bit would drift around. If it did eventually catch, it would quite likely be in the incorrect location.

There may be occasions when you have to drill a hole at an angle. In these cases drill carefully. You can draw a pencil line on the material noting the angle and then try to follow that pencil guide as you drill. There are also angle guides you can use. Place these over the spot you want drilled with the guide calibrated at the correct angle. Insert the drill bit into the guide and drill away. If you are drilling completely through the material when the drill bit begins to exit out the other side of the material be careful, especially with wood. The drill bit exiting the wood can splinter the wood around the exit point. If it may show, you might want to sand it smooth. Better yet prevent the splintering by covering the exit point with masking or duct tape. The tape may decrease should not prevent the splintering.

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 may also give a cleaner hole.

DIY Safety tips:

If you need to change a mains fuse, check the correct rating for that circuit - the blown fuse might have been incorrect in the first place. Using a thicker fuse wire than the correct rating is hazardous. Switch off the power and remove the fuse for the relevant circuit before carrying out any work, or inspecting, either it, or the appliances connected to it. Never inspect, or carry out work on, any part of the system with the power on. Make sure that power cannot be inadvertently restored by someone else.
When painting, or using any material that generates toxic fumes or dust, keep the room well ventilated. Never smoke while painting or standing close to a freshly painted area.

Ladders are one of the main causes of DIY accidents. Erect the ladder according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never lean to one side as you could lose balance. Don't rush as you're more likely to have an accident. Carefully plan the job before you start work. Know your limitations and consult a professional should you are unsure. It's also a good idea to ask someone should they can help you.

New appliances have to be supplied with a plug that is fused in accordance with manufacturers' instructions. Always follow manufacturers' recommendations for fuses, or seek expert help. Check older appliances such as electric blankets and Christmas tree lights. If a fuse blows for no obvious reason or an appliance is not working properly, turn off the appliance at the socket and unplug it before trying to find out why. The same principles apply to fuse boxes or circuit breakers - always turn off at the mains before you investigate and remember to replace the cover before switching back on. If you need to change a mains fuse, check the correct rating for that circuit - the blown fuse might have been incorrect in the first place. Using a thicker fuse wire than the correct rating is hazardous.

Be sure you know the correct way to use all the tools. Many have very sharp blades.
