This isn't necessary at all, I was just stating one of my favorite power tools.

As for carbide bits - we really only keep 1 or 2 around, and those were for cleanly drilling through rivets quickly. They aren't necessary either.

Recommended item - set of hole saws.

When you suggested the right-angle drill, it was a "that would've been helpful" moment. I can't tell you how many times I was personally looking to drill a hole only to find out our drill didn't fit in the space.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but hole saws are to cut bigger holes? What material would you suggest if we mainly work on aluminum?
