Cheap *** cordless drill

Just ran across this at harbor freight. Figured I'd mention it to people that build alot of enclosures and hate swappin from a drill/countersink bit over to a phillips bit for driving screws. $12.99 for an 18v cordless drill, guessin it horrible quality but totally worth the convenience of having 2 drills for moving projects along faster.

I have a Black and Decker 14.4v from Walmart. Nice drill. I've only had it for a couple months and have made about 5 boxes with it. Has plenty of torque for screwing in screws. I can do alot on just 1 charge as well. I dont remember how much exactly but it was less than 50.00.

I'm a cheap bastard. I will probably pick one up and use it just for driving screws into a predrilled hole. I'm guessing it would have to last a while doing light duty work. If it doesn't its a 13 dollar lesson. If it breaks I will just take it back for a replacement like I have done with alot of my harbor freight tools //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Seriously, basically all KIDS toys I've seen have better build quality than those pos drills
