Safe drilling techniques


Recommended Posts

After reading the thread below I went looking for how to properly hold a bigger drill. I'm sharing in case other beginners like me need to know how to safely hold a drill - and that a clutch won't kick in magically but needs you to provide resistance.

I am sure a self serving internet influencer will come along and show us how we have been doing it all wrong, and their simple hack will allow you to drill the perfect hole.

It looks like newer (and more expensive) drill models have an electronic anti-kickback feature (gyroscope + reverse current to motor?) which kicks in when the drill rotates quickly through 90 degrees. Seems a sensible addition.
