Be more specific. You mean a fucking circular saw? You point, you pull the trigger, the blade spins around and cuts the shit out of something. You mean a drill? You point, you pull the trigger, and the bit spins around and cuts the shit out of something. I just don't see what's so hard about using tools. Honestly, Bobo the monkey could do that.

Anyone can use a drill, but in order to be successful, you have to know what rpm is needed, and how fast you drill a hole for whatever material. Like if you go through plywood too fast, you'll tear out the back of it. To get a clean hole through plywood, you go throught slow at a high rpm. You also need to know what kind of bits are best for whatever job. You use twist drills on metal, high rpm on soft metals, and low rpm on hard metals. Then you have to add cutting fluid. Maybe even tap the hole after, and taps are very easy to break. You have to know when to stop or slow down. Then you can also shape a spade bit for irregular holes. If your drilling concrete you need a special drill that pounds like a hammer as it spins.So yeah, I'm sure you could use a drill to drill some neato little holes in a board, but if I gave you a job to do that involved drilling through different materials with different bits, I'm sure you'd be lost.

You have no idea who I am or what I can do. You act like you're some kind of specialist because you know enough to use a different bit in different materials. Big fucking deal, anybody could figure that out. I know the same shit you do, but I don't go around acting like that makes me a 'man'.
Only those who have tools understand..
of course I can. My dad built our entire house, and did 95% of all repairs and addons himself with help of me and my brother. same with work on the car. He has 100's of tools and machines in his garage. Plus I've had a few years of woodshop and done construction jobs. One thing I don't know how to do which I really wanna learn is welding.
