electric drill

Cordless hole maker

An electric drill is a power tool with a rotating chuck that holds drill bits for boring holes or driving screws.

Unlike manual drills, it uses an electric motor—either corded or battery-powered.

Cordless drills have largely replaced corded models for home use: I need to grab the electric drill from the garage.
