Putting a screw in a board

[spaceman]

is it more in the wrist or in the elbow?
whats the best way to approach it?
fwiw i have a variable speed 14 volt craftsmen but they didnt supply instruction on how to screw into a board.

s
1: Cut a hole in a box
2: Put your junk in that box
3: Make her open the box

Make a pilot hole.

 

[spaceman]

with the variable speed is it moron or moreoff?

 

[Kalmah]

I find it easiest to attach the board to a ceiling fan, hold the screw to the board, then turn the ceiling fan on... Apply pressure.

 

[IronWing]

Chuck and clutch just chuck and clutch.

 

[Bulk Beef]

Your drill is definitely moron at any speed.

 

[IronWing]

If you buy a strobe light you can vary the drill speed until it looks like it isn't moving at all. Of course, I guess there is a way to do this with a plain old light as well.

Is this a serious question?

Just use a screwdriver....

Best way to approach it? ...

1) Place screw, pointy end down, on board
2) Place screwdriver tip into non-pointy end of screw.
3) Turn clockwise while applying pressure
4) ...
5) Profit?

This.

From there you can moron or moreoff all you want. If this is a serious thread, make the hole first and THEN screw it.

Slowy backs out of thread not knowing if this is a parody or not. I don't want people to think I'm stupid. What do you mean it's too late.

Pack up your drill and send it back to the manufacturer. Kindly ask for a refund as you are too incompetent to use such a device. You may want to do the same with your shoes. Walking can be kinda tricky too.

I thought it was a spoof. I was wrong. Then I saw this. America is doomed.

 

[Greenman]

Just pound the screw in with a rock.

 

[IronWing]

OP: Who gave you the wood?

Too fucking lazy (or too fucking incompetent) to drive a nail?


BTW, the BEST way to put a screw in a board is via a knothole...but watch for splinters...they can be a bitch.

While I can't vouch for that tool, a real palm nailer is god's gift to mankind when putting up joist hangers.
