There has always been an abundance of dads and
uncles that have an interest in power tools in the Philippines. most of the time these are just reserved at home
just in case the need arises. For the most part, these tools are used for
fixing things around the house or installing things that need some more muscle.
Sometimes, however, there are people who have no
idea on how to use these power tools. Still relying on the same old hammer,
cutters, and saws that are simply not for the job. Take note that these tools
are still completely useful for other projects, however, there are just some
things that will really require power tools in order for you to do.
With that being said, for those who are not that
knowledgeable when it comes to power tools, here is a small guide to which ones
are essential for you to buy.
Power
Drills
Power drills come in two varieties, the corded
power drill and the cordless power drill. These drills are primarily used for
drilling holes in metal, plastics, wood, brick, stone,
concrete, glass, and tiles. there are many drill bits (the removable tip of a
power drill) that are available depending on the material being drilled. There
are high-speed steel bits for metal, flat bits for wood, and masonry bits for
concrete.
The key difference between corded and cordless
power drills is the freedom that comes with being cordless. Because of this,
cordless power drills can be used in more places. While corded power drills are
reliant on extension cords to increase their effective area of usage.
Electric
Saws
There are many kinds of electric saws. Some of
which include the Jigsaw, the Circular Saw, and the Reciprocating Saw. Take
into consideration what the things you are going to cut. Most of the time,
particularly for DIY aficionados would only ever need to cut wood of varying
sizes and density. Make sure that you take that into consideration when
choosing an electric saw.
Air
Compressor Tools
These tools can range from air impact wrenches, air
drills, and air hammers. These tools are operated using pressure. Almost all
air power tools are designed to use between 90 to 100 PSI. with that being
said, air compressor tools work by squeezing air into a fraction of its
original volume. Making pressure increase proportionally.
Nail Gun
One of the more known air power tools is the nail gun. A more powerful alternative to the traditional hammer, the nail gun is
perfect for installing hardwood floors or repairing furniture. These machines
launch nails at high speed, fully embedding them into a piece of wood
instantly. when compared with using a hammer, using a nail gun will save you
from getting easily tired.
Key
Takeaway
These are 4 of the essential power tools that
anyone that has an interest in DIY projects and house repair needs. However,
there are so many other power tools on the market that are more specific and
more useful in many situations. In the Philippines, power tools are basically a
requirement for any family. Make sure you have the necessary tools for any kind
of repair or installations you might do at home.
