Doncha just love it when you find an easy solution??
Not always! What if it's an easy solution that takes hours and hours
and hours to find?
Here's my story:
I'm talking about the time that I was using a hole drill under my
desk. Couldn't see where exactly I was drilling, but it was aimed in
the right direction and it was turning.
3/4" side of particle board desk. What? Maybe five minutes max of
drilling?
After an hour the cordless battery died. Hit the drill with a
replacement and continued on. Went to a smaller hole drill, figured
the one I was using was too dull. Another hour wasted. Went to the
store and bought a new hole drill. Two more hours wasted with a whole
lot of cursing and swearing. Know I was hitting wood. It wasn't some
metal device in the way.
FINALLY after four hours of screwing around with this thing, I pulled
the drill out to realize what I'd been doing wrong all the time.
That damned cordless drill was in reverse. Kicked myself for two weeks
after that. Actually had a nightmare about it.
Demons come in all forms folks.
Did that with my drill once. Finally noticed on my 3rd bit {sheepish
grin}
