Then you put the threaded end through it and finally you ensure a connection that can withstand a knock with bolts on both sides.<br /><br />It is also customary when attaching the planks for the table or for the seating planks. drilling through the planks and inserting a bolt through the hole from above and tightening it from below with a nut.<br /><br />In short, extra long wood drills are indispensable for garden handymen and wood professionals.</p>
• Extra long HSS metal drills
  <p>Contrary to what the name suggests, you can use HSS metal drills not only to drill holes in metal, but also in wood and plastics. They are real all-rounders that can be used for various applications. As a handyman, you only need one set of drills. So if you sometimes drill in wood, sometimes in metal and sometimes in plastic, these HSS metal drills are the right choice. ##</p> <h2>How do you recognize HSS metal drills?</h2> <p>A metal drill is characterized by the sharp point and the equal diameter over the entire length of the drill. The drill point with this type of drill is usually sharpened with an angle of 118 degrees. Thanks to this drill angle you can be sure of a good removal of metal scraps while, on the other hand, the drill is still easy to place.</p> <h2>Frictional heat</h2> <p>The abbreviation HSS that you often hear in combination with metal drills, stands for High Speed ​​Steel. This indicates that these drills function best at high speeds. This high number of revolutions creates friction with the metal, which can cause the metal and the drill itself to glow red. That is usually not a problem, HSS metal drills are made for that and in general it will not reduce the drilling performance. Nevertheless, it is often recommended to cool the drill and the metal with drilling oil with these metal drills. The use of drilling oil has the advantage that the frictional heat decreases as a result. This is especially nice when drilling in stainless steel (stainless steel), because this material actually becomes harder when the temperature increases. One of the problems with drilling in metal is that it is often difficult to keep the drill tip stable where the hole is to be drilled. For the best drilling result, without all kinds of annoying scratches, you can first make a small hole in the metal with a punch, center punch or with a simple nail. If you want to make a large diameter hole, it may be best to drill a much smaller diameter hole first to allow for stable positioning of the drill.</p> <h2>Different diameters extra long HSS metal drills</h2> <p>In our range you will find metal drills with different diameters that are supplied per set. Some sets consist of metal drill bits of the same length and diameter, while other sets consist of metal drill bits with varying diameters. So whatever you are looking for, you will certainly succeed here.</p>

To be able to use your drill in all situations, you need a number of accessories, such as the drill accessories below.##</p> <h2>Useful drilling accessories: depth rings</h2> <p>Depths are mainly used when drilling in relatively thin walls.

Very simple, you turn a ring on your drill and you drill so deep until the ring touches the wall and then you stop. With this relatively simple drilling aid you prevent that you drill too deep or that you do not drill deep enough.</p> <h2>Center points or dowels for an optimal drilling result</h2> <p>Another useful tool for drilling is our center points or dowels. You use this to make a hole in the substrate in which to drill, such as wood, metal and stone. By placing the drill tip in this well, you will reduce the chance of your drill slipping while drilling.

• Concrete drills
  <p>A <strong>concrete drill</strong> is used to drill holes in materials such as stone, masonry and concrete. Traditional drills are too fragile for this purpose. <strong>Concrete drills</strong> are made of durable, harder material that can withstand the force. These drills are usually equipped with an SDS(plus) system. An ordinary drill is fixed by the chuck of a drilling machine, a drill with an SDS(plus) shaft has a recess on both sides through which it is clicked into the drill, which can only be done in 1 way. The drill is immediately secured. This way it will not move during drilling. The concrete drills we sell are available in diameters 6 to 25 mm with lengths of 110 to 400 mm.<br />##</p> <h2>How to drill into concrete with a impact drill</h2> <p>There are several steps to follow when drilling into concrete. These are:</p> <p><strong>Marking the spot<br /></strong>You should start by marking the location where you are going to drill a hole. In addition, you need to think about how deep the hole should be. You can measure this with the help of a stop bar. You can also determine the depth by wrapping masking tape around the drill.</p> <p><strong>Prepare the drill<br /></strong>Wear your safety glasses. Next, you need to insert the right size concrete drill into your impact drill. Make sure it is properly locked to prevent slipping while drilling.</p> <p><strong>Put yourself in the right position<br /></strong>Hold the drill firmly and place your feet shoulder-width apart. To get more control, you can use the extra handle. If there is no extra handle, you should hold the hammer drill in the same way as a handgun. Care should be taken to keep the drill perpendicular to the concrete. The hammer action will cause some recoil.</p> <p><strong>Drill a guide hole<br /></strong>When the drill is on a slower setting, make the guide hole. If the drill has only one speed, you can use it in short bursts until the guide hole is about 1 cm deep.</p> <p><strong>Drill the desired hole<br /></strong>Hold the drill firmly but lightly. This will allow you to tackle any rock piles or hard material in the concrete. It is easy to lose control of the drill when drilling through concrete. With the guide hole in place, you can easily control the drill. As you become more and more confident, you can now increase the rotation speed until you have made the complete hole.</p> <p><strong>Remove debris/grit<br /></strong>It is advisable to pull the drill back after every 10 seconds to remove the debris from the hole. This will allow the drill to continue working on the hard concrete without being bothered by the grit.</p>

Models of airplanes, cars and ships are available in almost every toy store. They can be glued together and then painted to look exactly like the original. But there are many more forms of model building. Think of trains, for example, where enthusiastic hobbyists manage to build hefty dioramas complete with cities, mountains, waterways and of course one or more train stations with an astonishing resemblance by making clever use of wood, cardboard and plaster. Of course including moving trains that prefer to run together in complex schedules. Yet another form of model building is the reconstruction of specific aircraft, cars, ships and equipment on the basis of original construction drawings and photos. From scratch, closely resembling models are made of the original. With each of these forms of model building, a lot of work is done with soft materials and there is a need to make holes in these materials. For example, for the passage of thin electrical wire cables to illuminate objects. When holes have to be drilled in these materials, modellers prefer to use hand drills rather than cordless drills or electric drills, because hand drills provide an optimal feeling and therefore allow very precise work.</p> <h2>Hand drills when making jewelry</h2> <p>But also makers of jewelry are avid users of <strong>hand drills</strong>. After all, precious metals such as gold, silver and platinum do not oxidize, but they are also relatively soft materials in which holes sometimes have to be drilled, for example to be able to connect them together. Hand drills are ideal for this, as they offer maximum control. In addition, by drilling manually, you can very precisely determine the force with which you drill. Not all jewelry is made of precious metals. Especially in the corner of people who make jewelry as a hobby, you will find plenty of fanatic makers of jewelry who use modern plastics, such as epoxy resin. By pouring a colored epoxy resin into a mold and letting it harden, you can make the most beautiful jewelry. You can use this epoxy resin jewelry as a charm in a bracelet, necklace or earrings by making holes in it with a <strong>hand drill</strong>. On this page you will find various excellent hand drills, possibly equipped with the corresponding drills. This way you can go in all directions as a model builder or maker of jewelry.</p>
