How thick are the pieces?

Depending on the wood, and how good you want the finish to look, drilling pilot holes is generally a good idea. You can end up cracking or chipping your pieces making them look like **** if you aren't careful.

If you're just building a tool shed out of 2x4's then who gives a ****. But if you're going through the effort of making furniture then you might as well take your time.

You going to countersink them too? Makes for a nice clean finish.

Just a thought anyway.


edit: Nevermind, I just re-read your post and it says "I make furniture", so you obviously know what you're doing. Ignore post. Leaving my post there for others if they give a ****.

Not a pro but haven't found a reason to not buy Makita. I have to be paranoid tho because my Makita tools seem to get stolen more than others.

even with a pilot hole it happens. You should usually pre drill most softwoods as well, especially within 1/2" of an edge cos they tend to split. Most screws are self tapping not self drilling.

Most hardwood will burn out standard HSS drills anyway. I use solid carbide which are heat proof.

No common hardwood is going to eat up a HSS bit when used properly.

I started with this drill, and I still have it, but it doesn't drive screws as well as a cheap impact driver. It's a weird combination of not powerful enough (when operated under controlled conditions) and insanely overpowered.

It's the drill you want when you're doing nothing but drilling, repeatedly, in tough materials. I also use it to mix mortar.

I think they're full of **** on their torque ratings, but this is basically what you want for driving screws.

Rigid are the only ones I've found with lifetime warranties on the batteries, which is nice.



In addition to the pilot holes, you can also use soap or glue on the screws in a pinch... I'm not sure if that's recommended from an engineering perspective, but it used to be a common treatment.

old house beams over 50 yrs old burn out HSS like there is no tomorrow and you can't sit around and baby the drill bit when you have 100 holes to do.

I like my Hitachi, charged battery last a very long time. I have this impact and the driver/drill equivalent as well.

WH18DGL 18V Lithium Ion Impact Driver | Hitachi

Over a hundred ft/lbs of torque.



I also have Makita and Delta cordless drills, but use these.
