Long Drill Bits.

[Notch7]

You must drill a 5mm shank hole through the first bit of timber, or the joint won't tighten up.

You shouldn't need a pilot hole with decent screws.

Are your fence posts oak or softwood.

Use wax on screw or even spray WD40 into you screw box....lubrication helps a lot.


No, length of bit driver makes no difference apart from access.

I've recently bought a bit adapter for mine and started using it again.

And me, very useful!

Thanks all. Used a PZ3 and got much better results. So thanks all. Now furnished myself with a set of DeWalt PZ3s.
