    I've noticed a shift in my interest towards Hueguh's recent content.
    A lot of his recent videos (even Instagram posts) seem to be sponsored, that's perfectly fine - who wouldn't appreciate a nice paycheck for a sponsorship?
    His sleek, minimalist style edits in these projects are commendable.
    While I understand there's a limit to the number of "minimalist wardrobe" or "my watch/EDC collection" videos one can make, I'm eager for some relatable content in the future!
    Does anyone else feel the same way?
    Initially, what drew me to Hueguh's channel were his minimalistic videos, simple wardrobe choices, and other non-sponsored content.

    I would like to say, the bits and sockets in the tool check are not impact rated. Which means you are not supposed to use them with an impact driver or a drill at high speed. That being said you will probably be fine using for diy home stuff. But if you are really going to be putting your drill to work then go buy Milwaukee impact bits. You will be much happier and won’t ruin your nice Wera bits.

  • @krugerblue
    @krugerblue 3 месяца назад +5

    In my opinion, if you have one power tool, it should be a drill, and not an impact. Good luck driving small screws into mdf or soft wood (like IKEA and most other manufacturers use for mass produced furniture). More power to you if you can use an impact only, but myself having been through this multiple times, buying tools over tools, these are my thoughts. Yes, you can also drill holes with the impact, but gluck doing it in concrete (like most homes in EU at least are still made of)
    Obviously, situation changes if you work on construction or build your own stuff, or work on your car also. But for home use - the drill is still the king of power tools.

    All very nice (and expensive) tools. But no way would I choose an impact driver over a drill. Drills have a clutch, most novices will over torque when using an impact and crack or split the material they are working with. Impact is a good secondary driver but the drill is still best. Ideally a hammer drill as homeowners will need to drill into brick or concrete sometimes which an impact is terrible at doing (even with multi-material bits).
