power drills

Motorized hole makers

Power drills are handheld electric or battery-powered tools that rotate a bit to bore holes or drive fasteners.

They range from light cordless models for home use to heavy-duty corded drills for construction.

The chuck holds interchangeable bits for drilling into wood, metal, or masonry.

I need to grab the power drill to hang these shelves.
