Drill Driver

Hey Tad,

I have been using one for about 4 months. It's a great
tool. I have the dewalt corded 7.8 amp drill and I clean
alot of stairs with the driver. I have two accounts that have over 300 stairs each. I clean these myself with no problem. I prespray then off I go. Start from the top and work down. Top of stair,riser then steps. It works great. Do yourself a favor and get a good drill. I made the mistake and bought a cheap one at first, then bought the dewalt. I also like the drill driver for office furniture. Just prespray with punch and off you go.


Good Luck


Ralph

I'm considering getting a corded right angle drill which may be more comfortable to operate. What do you think?

Mark, you are right, they are a lot easier to operate. The best one out there is the Makita 9227-C that you can get at Lowe's for around $200
