What happens here

The presenter switches the drill/driver to speed 2, noting that it doesn't even have enough power to drive the screw at this setting. He attempts to drive the screw, but the drill immediately cuts out due to lack of power and resistance from the wood, failing to make any progress.

Goal: Show that the drill/driver lacks the power to drive large screws at higher speeds.

Tools and materials

  • Milwaukee Drill/Driver Milwaukee — Attempting to drive the screw
  • Pressure-Treated 4x4 Wood — The material into which the screw is driven
  • 5/16" x 6" Screw — The fastener being driven
