Th;ank you! i was able to hang some pot lid holders on inside of cabinet doors....66 year old wheelchair dependent and Never held a power drill in my hand until now. Job done thanks to you!
Fantastic video for someone like me starting from ground zero! Head and shoulders above the rest I've seen on TH-cam and I've watched a lot! Thank you!
Thanks - very helpful for someone totally unfamiliar with drills. No instructions with my new Bosch drill nor on which bit from my new set to use for the different mediums. This may seem obvious to some people but to those who have never used a drill, its essential information.
I have always hated DIY and convinced myself that I can't use drills etc but now I want to prove to myself that I can. And your tutorial is so helpful and easy to understand. I rarely subscribe to TH-cam channels but I am definitely subscribing to this one. I suspect that you would get more views if you were a guy but unfortunately many people still think that men are better at handling drills and other tools.
As a beginner, for the life of me I could not figure out when to use the bit and when to use the screw. I know that is crazy. All of the other videos assume that you know how to do this. Thanks for your excellent explanation of things and clearing my head!!
I am so glad I found this series of videos. Something about the vibe has really touched me. I am a complete novice who has just bought their first drill having never done any DIY past flat pack assembley before. I realised that if you rely on other people, you will be waiting all of your life, or end up in a power imbalance. I am nervous but took Helen's advice and bought some filler to accompany the drill - how bad can it be? I loved the chanting and drumming part - felt choked up but empowered - very healing 💚 I would love to see a vid of just singing! Sincerely, Helen 💜
This was very helpful, & easy to understand. Especially for me who just learned it today🤩, just fixed my first wall drill & kept some hanging plants 🪴 on it❤️❤️❤️, More Power to you, 🙌🙌💪💪
Thank you so much for this clear and through tutorial. Your joy and patience radiate and You made it so much less intimidating to tackle my first project. ❤️🙏🏻💪
Thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed to know about how to use my new drill - even the instruction manual that came with it assumed a basic level of knowledge!
The clutch doesn't control the "power" of the drill. It sets a limit on how much force the drill will apply. It's meant to help you stop the drill from over driving a screw. The transmission switch controls the speed and torque of the motor. The hammer function on the chick is for masonry walls only. Not sure if "Hard Walls" is an indium for masonry or not.
Helen you're amazing - I was just about to buy a £75 drilling course but you've taught me all I need to know in this video and the brick drilling!!!!!!! As I already had a drill I can now put this money into buying a multitool. Do you have a recommendation as to which cordless ones are best? Also do you do how to put up a floating shelf? Well done again and thank you !!!
Question!... Anyone else ever find that just as you're finishing drilling a screw into something, the drill sometimes whips your wrist around into a painful sprain? it's just happened me a few times and always felt like it could've gone way worse, so been making me kinda nervous lately. I realise i'm probably doing something stupid like just holding the button down a second too long, and need to time it better when letting go of the button or something , but if anyone has any pointers or Do's&Don'ts I might be overlooking would be great please And great video Helen, Thanks
is there a verbal error at 7:06? it was mentioned the bits should be smaller than the screw ... so why she mentioned at 7:18 we should see "either side of the drill bits"?
This is so helpful but I'm slightly confused by the chuck ring. If I wanted to change to srill/screwdriver/hammer doesn't that turn up or down the power because its not set to a number ? I need to put a heavy morro on a concrete wall and I'm so nervous as I've just decorated
th-cam.com/video/krViaFG3Etc/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared I know it's a year later but her other video might help you if you're still trying to figure it out. My drill's power level and mode settings are independent of one another (i.e. I can set it to 5 but switch from drill, hammer drill or screwdriver mode) perhaps yours does also?
Not sure what drill bits i need to use or buy or what they are for or how to put them in the drill and what the numbers are for 🤔 i ended up getting my bit stuck in wood and it loosened itself from my drill 😭
After watching a few other videos, on How to use a cordless drill for a Beginner, I came across yours. I THANK YOU SO MUCH. I appreciate you, cause I was lost, being a woman of a particular age. I feel much better about my Warrior purchase, was thinking of returning it, Thanks to You, I changed my mind, and can hang my own curtain rods. lol. God Bless You.
Thank you Helen, I have just stumbled on this video by accident after trawling through other sites for guidance but they were pretty useless as I am a complete novice at using a cordless drill and haven't a clue about all the different pieces to use. There was no explanation in the user instructions of my new drill or which bit to use and I almost sent it back but after seeing your tutorial you have given me the confidence to have a go. I'll keep on watching you from now on, THANKS
Thank you for going at my pace. The US demonstrators speak too fast and leave out important stuff like putting the bits into a holder. Hence my electric screwdriver has a bit stuck inside it and I can't get it out. It is old but I think I will have to give up on it. I have an old rechargeable drill so I may try that instead and hope I don't get a bit stuck in that too. I'm a lost cause when it comes to tools and hope you will do some more videos for luddites like me.
You just saved me so much time. Father in law bought me power drill and I gave up when I couldn't figure out how to put the bits in. I appreciate your easy explanation. Now I can go to work on these shelves and save my wrists!
Thank you so much!!!!With so much love from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
Th;ank you! i was able to hang some pot lid holders on inside of cabinet doors....66 year old wheelchair dependent and Never held a power drill in my hand until now. Job done thanks to you!
That was very clearly explained. I now feel ready to use my drill which I bought about five years ago. 😳 Thank you. 👍
Fantastic video for someone like me starting from ground zero! Head and shoulders above the rest I've seen on TH-cam and I've watched a lot! Thank you!
Yes madam. Of all the vids I've watched regarding drill usage, yours was the most thoroughly informative!
Job well done
I totally agree.
I love the bassa call in the beginning
This video was so helpful. Thank you for the concise and very clear instructions.
Thankyou you are very good at explaining I have just bought a drill for first time and you helped me understand how to use it ❤

Omg thank you so much that is what I wanted to know.
Well done and nice energy in the delivery. I found this video very helpful; thank you!
Thank you 🙏
I got a drill as a gift can't wait to use it now
The clutch doesn't control the "power" of the drill. It sets a limit on how much force the drill will apply. It's meant to help you stop the drill from over driving a screw.
The transmission switch controls the speed and torque of the motor.
The hammer function on the chick is for masonry walls only. Not sure if "Hard Walls" is an indium for masonry or not.
Thank you from a 67yrold newbie do it yourselfer !
Thank you SO much
So thorough and clearly explained! Thank you!
Just exactly what I needed.

And great video Helen, Thanks
Thank you!!! Of course it takes a BW to be clear concise and straight to the point.
BW?
👌🏾
is there a verbal error at 7:06? it was mentioned the bits should be smaller than the screw ... so why she mentioned at 7:18 we should see "either side of the drill bits"?
Thanks for this😅
I would like to know what drill you use please?
Dewalt 18V 2.0AH LI-ION XR BRUSHLESS CORDLESS COMBI DRILL
What kind of drill is this? I would like to buy this one.

How to determine if it's a wood bit or not?
Not sure what drill bits i need to use or buy or what they are for or how to put them in the drill and what the numbers are for 🤔 i ended up getting my bit stuck in wood and it loosened itself from my drill 😭
Please what type and make of cordless drill you are using and your drill set please. looks a good make but dont know what male and model please.
Dewalt 18V 2.0AH LI-ION XR BRUSHLESS CORDLESS COMBI DRILL everything there is dewalt

Macy Gray
I'm just gonna pay someone
Lmbo

Please never use a screwdriver to put a screw in, buy an impact driver
Great but she keeps sounding like she's gonna crack up laughing!!
Is something funny about drilling?
Love you, absolutely fantastic info thank love ❤️
Very very useful thank you 🙏 love ❤️
Very informative. My cordless drill I bought online didn't have an owner's manual. Lol

Excellent stuff. I’ve learned a lot from these videos. Thank you!
Thank you, being on my own I hadn't a clue but I've just put a curtain pole up with your help, it may be slightly wonky but I did it.

Thank you so much Helen I had no idea how to use a drill and you explained everything so clearly I don’t feel intimidated at all any more
You’re my super hero!!
You just saved me so much time. Father in law bought me power drill and I gave up when I couldn't figure out how to put the bits in. I appreciate your easy explanation. Now I can go to work on these shelves and save my wrists!
