  • How to use a drill - a beginner's guide.
    Using a drill is easier than you think once you know a few basics.
    In this video I cover choosing a drill (plug-in or cordless), what you can use a drill for, the parts of the drill and the settings of a drill, choosing and fitting drill bits, how to use a drill safely for the first time, tips for using the drill for drilling holes and for screwing and unscrewing screws.
    It's a good idea to look at drills in person to find the best drill for you but below are a few ideas I found on amazon - any amazon links that appear in my channel's video descriptions are affiliate links which means I earn a tiny commission if you use the link. This does not affect the price you pay, and I only ever include links for products I would also buy.

      So sorry you lost your companion. Hats off to you for rolling up your sleeves & learning to 'do' for yourself. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. A tiny tip is 'preparation' take time to get it right. As you're watching videos like this with great advice I know you're on the right track.

    you are a lifesaver! never used a drill in my life and trying to learn how to be more independent. i was so scared of it. i swear i went through ten videos to finally find a step by step guide for a TRUE novice! thank you so much!

    Thank you so much for this informative video. I am a retired 61 year-old female, and I live alone in a senior living facility, and I do not have anyone to help me to use the drill. Thank you very much for your very clear explanation of how the drill works, and the tools can be used. Im a new subscriber!😊

    It's a fantastic video for a complete novice. Never used or even looked at a drill before in my life. Husband died last year, shed full of equipment, and I wanted to take a shelf down. After watching video ( couple of times) I had the courage to have a go. Success! Thank You so much.

    Girl! I would like to THANK YOU for teaching me how to use a drill! I so appreciated all the facets of your instruction, because even though my drill is nothing like yours, you covered so much that I understood how to use mine and no longer fear it. I had searched (and watched) other videos, and NO ONE was as easy to understand or as thorough as you were. I watched your vid, went outside and drilled away like it was nobody's business. Thank you again!!

      Same. Now on my own and only a tiny clue of how to use one.

  • @lostinmyimagination7485
    @lostinmyimagination7485 17 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Id seen my dad use one growing up with no clue how to use one except to pull the trigger. Knew nothing about needing different sizes of bits, what a bit was and that you use different ones for different tasks. Now im at least confident enough to try it by drilling a drainage hole in a flower pot. Baby steps lol. Thank you so much for this video!!

    Hi Georgina, Just to say a big thank you for your tips on using a drill. I had a lot more confidence a decade or so, but was a bit nervous about doing this sort of thing on my own. Your advice was clear, concise and not 'dumbed down' but included everything I needed to encourage me to have a go. You have just got yourself a new subscriber!

    Thank you so much. I'm a 66 woman, had/have a dad/husband/sons who can do this stuff in their sleep but are rubbish at explaining it. I'm tired of asking my son to do stuff (so is he!) so this was brilliant. The only thing is I bought a Black and Decker Reviva for simplicity but can't work out how to get the bits in and out 🤷‍♀. I'll read the very limited directions again but I'm so grateful for your clear concise video.
