Everyone knows that an ordinary household screwdriver (drill) is a universal tool. With its help, you can make holes in different materials, tighten and unscrew any fasteners, engage in threading work, etc. But with a creative approach to this tool, it can be equipped with dozens of new “professions” that will save us time, effort and money. Let's look at some of them.

This is especially true when it's time to change your shoes. To quickly raise and then lower it without straining, we clamp the drill head into the drill chuck and rotate the jack screw clockwise when lifting and counterclockwise when lowering.

An electric pencil sharpener is quite expensive. But you won't need it if you have a screwdriver or drill. We clamp the pencil into the drill chuck, turn on the tool and lightly press the hand sharpener to the end of the pencil. A moment - and he is ready to go!

Peeling fruits by hand is time-consuming, tedious and unsafe. This work can be done almost instantly and economically. To do this, we place the apple in the center on a feather drill fixed in a drill, turn on the tool, and bring a hand-held vegetable peeler to the fruit.
