The creator provides a quick overview of the simple installation process: drilling a 3/8-inch hole into the wood post, inserting a preservative stick, and then sealing the hole with a plastic plug. He then presents the specific tools required for the task. These include a Milwaukee FUEL cordless drill, fitted with a 3/8-inch drill bit, and a standard Phillips head screwdriver with an insulated red handle.
