Hammer, Drill, Saw, Wrench 101

The series begins by laying the foundation: understanding what each core tool is designed to do and how to hold it with stability and control. Chapter 1 explains the basic anatomy of the hammer, drill, saw, and wrench, along with proper stance, safe workspace setup, and the importance of first-contact technique. You learn that early habits matter more than strength, and that safe, confident tool use starts with posture, grip, and preparation. Chapter 2 moves into execution. You learn how to drive and remove nails smoothly, drill clean and straight holes, guide a saw through controlled strokes, and tighten or loosen fasteners without slipping or rounding them. Each tool is paired with simple tests that help you confirm your accuracy. The chapter stresses awareness, feedback, and stopping when something feels off. You gain the ability to judge your own work and understand why each result turned out the way it did. Chapter 3 focuses on troubleshooting and long-term reliability. It covers the most common mistakes with all four tools and shows how to fix them safely. You learn how to recognize glancing hammer blows, wandering drill bits, binding saw cuts, and slipping wrenches, along with the reasons these problems occur. The chapter ends with a care plan: cleaning tools, replacing worn parts, preventing rust, and keeping your movements controlled and steady. By the end, you know not just how to use the tools, but how to maintain them and build skills that last for years.
