Other Basic Tool Use and Understanding
I would also like to take note that I have always been around an assortment of power tools ranging from table saws, ratchets, screwdrivers, impact wrenches, and more. I understand the importance of torque specs and taking projects apart while laying those parts in an organized manner so they easily can be put back together, without ending up with an extra screw. If you would like to hear more about the projects in depth or have questions feel free to contact my phone (text or call) or my knights email, I check them quite frequently.
