Impact driver praise
It's
been over a year since I first started using the DeWalt
impact driver and I still think it's an awesome tool.
The LED work light is handy
when working in dark corners and the petite size is easier to fit into
small spaces while at the same time decreasing wrist fatigue with its
light weight.
We still use the DeWalt
hammer drill for big holes, but most fastener driving gets done
with the impact driver.

Hello,
Cordless tools area god send for not only professional, but for heads up homesteaders everywhere. The convenience of working without a cord is immeasurable. The best advice I can give to you and other young ones is to buy one step up from what you feel you can afford when it comes to any tool. I have been in the building trades for forty some years and depend on my tools to feed me, my wife and support a whole mess of animals and local non-profits. As you are quite aware, homesteading is not cash positive adventure.
Full disclosure, I use mostly Milwaukee tools as I have had exceptional service from them. including some that I have inherited from my grandfather. I will admit that Dewalt will do in a pinch. (sort of like the Chevy, Dodge, Ford truck loyalties).
