libraries are good and i am glad they are still around
internet is good too for finding information on drilling holes

but the best thing is to get some scraps and find your drilling mojo
after a while you will start to get the feel for it

The last time I used a drill in a library they asked me to leave.

maybe you chose to drill for the wrong thing
they encourage drilling for knowledge and information

but no drilling wood
you missed the sign

You shouldn't have been using one of those cheap Black & Decker grinder
drills. You needed to bring a good quality drill, so that it won't
disturb other patrons! Sometimes those Panasonics purr like a tribble,
and who can resist that?

I was under the impression that Hilti made good quality tools.

Not really, but then no cordless drill is that loud unless the clutch
engages. Then the Festool wins, the clutch is electronic and it simply
sounds a tone and stops drilling when the clutch setting has been reached.

I bought my first Panasonic drill in 1990, IIRC They are top notch drills.

I never said they were quiet, I said they sometimes purr like a Tribble.
It's too bad they don't reproduce like, uh wait... forget that thought.

I'm not surprised that you haven't heard of them. They're in the
Festool class. ;-)

I would say absolutely equal in quality, especially back then.
But Festool is absolutely more useful with the extra features.
