For DIY enthusiasts, and even those who have the bare basics of a tool
box, most people will probably have at least some hand and power tools
to call their own. The simple difference between a hand and power tool
is that hand tools are devices for performing work on a material using
only hands while the power tools are tools powered by an electric motor.
Arguably
power tools are great machines for completing large scale projects
quickly and efficiently, and other tasks which require more than man
power to get the job done. Meanwhile, hand tools can mean the difference
between a casual DIY beginner and a true craftsperson for smaller
projects. A degree of skill and precision can come into the use of hand
tools, while the main element of using power tools is the safety aspect.
Hand
tools usually refer to anything which is manual, and there are many
which are so common and every day, that we do not even think of them as
tools at all. These range from gardening equipment such as spades and
shovels, to hammers and screwdrivers. These items are so prevalent in
our daily lives we would not necessarily consider them when considering
the tools we own.
When asked about their tools, many would simply
think of tools powered by electricity or a motor. These can include
electric drills, petrol chainsaws, lawnmowers, power sanders and so on.
When it comes to deciding which is most important and versatile, you
should remember that both types of tool are indispensable in their own
right.
Hand tools provide more speed, strength, and accuracy than
hand tools, they are ideal for smaller projects but a power tool will
save you a considerable amount of time and effort in a larger project.
Hand tools have the edge when it comes to being more environmentally friendly, often easier to use, and cheaper to buy.
Often
power tools cannot be used near a water supply or in the rain, and the
user must also be careful of using such equipment around children or
animals in case of accidents.
Both hand tools and power tools
both have their place in any workshop and home. If you're serious about
DIY, it's important to use both types of tools in the situations where
they work the best. Some jobs, such as putting together flat pack
furniture, will require use of both types of tool, while other jobs such
as sanding, your choice will depend on the size of the area required, a
power sander is only needed for a large surface area. The important
thing to remember is that both power and hand tools can complement each
other in their uses and practicalities.
