Same carpentry tip but different levels of expertise 🤔. Which one are you?..#build #carpentry

What happens here

For precise screw placement, use a speed square. Position the speed square firmly against the edges of the treated lumber to create a straight guide for the screw. Then, use the Makita cordless drill/driver to drive the wood screw, ensuring it follows the desired angle and alignment.

Goal: Ensure accurate screw placement and alignment.
