Getting so a man can't have enough drills.

I've got 2 cordless Skills and a corded 1/4" Skill.

I originally got the Skill cordless NiCad set with the circular saw, 3/8" drill, Sawzall and light for $90, and used ebay to upgrade to LiIon for $70, then I bought a refurbed LiIon 1/2" drill/light set with a battery and charger for $70.

I keep a 3/32" bit in the 1/4" drill and a phillips driver in the 3/8" cordless for those times when nothing but a screw will do.

Now I need a 1/2" corded drill and maybe a drill press.

After that, a used Makita track saw with a Eurekazone setup. I'll get a contractors saw when we buy a house.
