    I can begin the day with a charged DW056, and remove and replace a residential garage door completely. Holds up great in cold weather. With the number of teks, screws, bolts, etc. in my industy, you wan to be set for a long haul, and that is what this tool gets for you.

    This Impact Driver was refered to me by my uncle who is also a carpenter. I can’t describe how much easier it is to drive screws.

    One thing I was impressed with was how close your gripping hand is able to be near the screw head. Other handles on screw guns are further back and make screwing more wobbly. I hope this has made sense. To a veteran screw gun user it should make sense. I strongly recommend this item.

    I purchased this tool to fix a little problem I was having while remodeling my basement. When attempting to sister up new 2x4s to old 2x4s my drill would cam out using both square drive and Phillips bits. My friends and I joked that the old wood was petrified. As I already have a host of other 18 volt DeWalt tools I got this one to match (two new batteries are nice to add to the rotation too). The impact driver drove the 2.5 and 3 inch screws home with no problem.

    I love this tool. It works where I need it.

    That said please note that I do not/can not use this tool for basic drilling needs. It does not have enough power to be used for most automotive tasks as it has only 98 ft lbs force and most pneumatics have 300-700 ft lbs force. Also note that with no clutch (which it should not have) you should not attempt to use this for finish wood work.
