Drills make round holes. That’s just the way it is. You can’t drill a square hole with a drill. Or can you? Yes you can, and without reaching for the saw. A new accessory called the Quadsaw lets your drill cut square and rectangular holes, and it is faster than using an electric saw. It actually makes sense when you look at the Quadsaw’s design.

When you are drilling holes and driving screws, it can be a pain to continually swap bits or grab another tool for the job. Most of us have both a drill and a screwdriver. However, Worx’s new Switchdriver puts both in one handy tool. It features a two-headed rotating chuck so you can switch bits on the fly and get stuff done much faster, with less hassle.

Sure, you could get yourself one of those fancy electric longboards that are all the rage right now, but they’re expensive. Fully decked out, one of these will cost you around $1,600(USD), and will take time to arrive.

Last year, we saw an angle-grinder chucking compact discs at high speed. La Fabrique DIY came up with a similar but less life-threatening contraption by repurposing a drill to launch frisbees. The crude but effective launcher uses the drill to turn a bicycle wheel, which in turn flings the frisbees with the help of a wooden feeder. Unfortunately, La Fabrique DIY didn’t provide a detailed guide for the launcher, so you might lose a frisbee or 10 while you’re perfecting your own build.

Some people don’t mind drinking a beer at room temperature, but I think most of us prefer it to be chilled. It takes at-least 10 to 15 minutes in the refrigerator before you can get it chilled.

If you have a Special Ops team that needs to disguise themselves as contractors, they are going to need some weapons right? This Dewalt drill handgun is perfect for the mission. It looks like a drill, but this drill makes holes with bullets not bits.

It’s pretty hard to be impressed by a simple drill bit, but this particular one does something I’ve not seen before. Instead of cutting round holes, this special bit cuts perfectly square ones.
