The design and shape of cordless power tools makes then fit into areas where corded power tools will not. In many cases, this leads to a sacrifice of turning strength from the motor. Dewalt power tools makes larger voltage cordless power tools to deliver more power for your job. Dewalt cordless power tools are the ones most often selected by professionals. Their dependability and ability to perform heavier work than most of the other lines of cordless tools is the reason for this. When doing repetitive work like hanging sheet rock, drill bits for driving the screws holding the sheet rock in place, tend to wear out and need replacement often. The quick-change heads of Dewalt power tools make this an easy task to accomplish with minimum slowing of the work being performed. Dewalt power tools offers a nice line of cordless screwdrivers and variable speed drills. The power ratings range from 7.2-volt motors up to 24-volt motors delivering the type of power you need. A variable speed drill is used to make a variety of different size holes from very tiny ones used to enable nails and screws to be driven without splitting the wood to large ones used for installing door knob assemblies. When using a variable speed drill, start your drilling slowly to allow the bit time enough to get firmly seated in the hole. This will lessen the chance of the bit jumping when higher speeds are applied which might cause you to drill something you did not want to have drilled. Dewalt power tools offer a full range of both corded and cordless tools. Their durability and easy ability to change accessories makes them highly desired for professionals. Dewalt power tools deliver in work conditions where other power tools fail. The only drawback I can see to this magnificent line of cordless tools is their weight. Having larger voltages to deliver more power means larger battery packs and larger motors as well. If you have to use one of these heavy cordless power tools all day, you will feel like you have done an intensive workout. Because this is a superior product, you can expect to pay a superior price for it as well. While you will see sales for the combo packs available in store ads, you may notice that these are the lighter weight tools. They will perform the work desired in most situation, but for the really heavy duty applications the heavy duty power tools will command a heavy duty price tag. An New Innovative Tool for Hanging Drywall Mark Donovan Hanging sheetrock can be back breaking work and almost impossible to do without two people, particularly if hanging sheetrock on the ceiling. Most professional drywall hangers and do-it-yourself homeowners use a drywall jack or a homemade T-bar to hold the drywall in place while they fasten it to the ceilings. However, for the do-it-yourself homeowner renting a drywall jack can be expensive and using a T-bar can take some getting use to. There is now a new alternative. I recently discovered a rather innovative tool for hanging drywall on ceilings and walls. The tool is extremely low cost, simple to use and very effective for holding drywall in place. The drywall tool goes by the name “FREE HANDS”. It is effectively a support tool for hanging sheetrock on ceilings and eliminates the need for a drywall jack or a T-bar. In addition, the device can also be used for hanging sheetrock on walls. Its simplicity is what makes it so unique. The FREE HAND drywall tool simply consists of two small brackets that can be quickly secured into ceiling joists or wall studs prior to hanging the drywall. The drywall installer then simply slides the drywall into the FREE HAND tool to support the weight of the drywall while it is being secured with screws or nails. FREE HAND can also be used on walls, by measuring down from the ceiling 48 inches and securing the FREE HAND tool to a wall stud. The sheetrock can then be slid into place up against the wall studs and then fastened with drywall nails or screws. Though FREE HAND is low tech it is very effective and low cost. The developer and manufacture, Quality Tool, advertise and sell the product on their website. The next time you plan on hanging sheetrock you may want to consider this alternative for holding drywall. It could save you time, money and maybe even a sore neck and back.
