Is this powerful enough for a 6 inch hole saw through 1/2 inch plywood? I make cornhole boards & need something powerful enough for the hole.
Asked by: Matt
Yes. It's powerful enough. It will break your wrists if you're not careful. Honestly you should look for a drill press if you're making a lot of those. It will make life way easier and your hole saws will last much longer.

I've been looking for a corded power tool that will just drill and drive the screws. I'm so tired of having to throw out the cordless power tools because I use it seldom (once a year or so) and batteries don't charge any more by the time I needed it. . I have been looking on line and there so many listed, I don't know how to tell them apart. I recently bought a black and decker but that turned out defective so I didn't even get a chance to try out the unit. Is this drill what I am looking for?
