I’m a 65-year-old retired man who taught school all my life, only now am I enjoying a new phase, learning minor home repair and construction projects. Thank you! Your style of teaching is amazing and ideal!
Probably the best instructional video I've seen , so good at explaining everything and at a good pace to allow time to take in the information. Thankyou I was looking to learn this to put up something at my nans for her :)
Very good and informative. As a former mechanical engineer I still found this useful as I have never gone into a brick wall before. (until later on when my masonary drill bits get delivered) 😁😎
I came across this channel because I was looking to do a simply DIY install of some racks and maybe even curtain bars. I didn't grow up in a stable home or with parents/people that were in a place to teach me these things so never learned any of this and want to just overcome that and become more handy myself. I'm so glad I found this channel - youtube is a great resource but I find it a bit intimidating sometimes being a young and extremely inexperienced woman trying to crack into this stuff!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much. I have a drill and had difficulty using it on a brick wall. I'm going to try again tomorrow-putting up a a basic curtain rail in my daughter's bedroom. I feel so empowered and excited... Even learnt some new skills. Thank you, this means so much to me as a single mother and showing my daughters they can do basic DIY!!! I was going to pay a handy man to do it, but I can do it myself.... now 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 please do more tutorials for those who lack confidence
You did a great job. You assumed I don't know anything. Great teacher. The best part is you outlined use impact during later half. I think you taught me basics. I am grateful to you.
Thank you for this! I've just ordered my first 20 volt cordless drill and I came here just for this. You did a good job explaining this and I can hardly wait until my drill arrives to try this out 🤗
I love the way you just make this look easy and not scary. I’m interior decorating my home and doings t myself. Just got a drill, this video will really help me. Thank you Helen
I love you Thanks I just moved into a house with brick walls and using command strips but I needed this.... because of u I'm ready to decorate ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
THIS was amazing and super helpful! Beautifully well done tutorial! I could listen to your voice all day long! Great teacher! Thank you for this video!
Thank you so much for this video, I really appreciate it! I've managed to get to 50 yrs old without grasping all the information I needed to do this job safely and well. You've changed that! An excellent video - clear, concise and easy to follow
I just subscribed! This tutorial is amazing! It was just perfectly paced and enjoyable. Thank you! I will watch the other videos! I’ve been scared of my drill for a long time. Feel like I can do it after watching your instructions.
Excellent video Helen. I used an ordinary drill to do this but, despite a lot of effort and changing bits, was only able to drill a couple of holes less than 1 inch in depth. Found out afterwards I need a drill with hammer capacity. Wish I'd seen your video before I bought the drill.
As a man, women in these comments need to stop putting themselves down. You don’t need a man to help you with appliances and stuff, you’re smart enough and capable. Don’t let sexist ideas prevent you from completing tasks. If I ever have a daughter, she’ll be taught to be capable of independence and to ignore sexist ideals.
What a fantastic video tutorial and teacher !!! I have long been daunted by the prospect of drilling into concrete and she really put me at ease. I feel a lot more confident about it now. Here we go! Thank you Helen!
This is so phenomenally helpful. Thank you! I love the way you've explained every small detail - no assumed knowledge. Thank you for making this video and sharing it!
Super usefull. Needed reference for this exact situation. I love the step by step tutorial. Can't wait for my first power tool to arrive so I can drill my wall ❤
Thank you very much Miss! i learn the drill plus, the traditional way to make classic soul clap chorus singing ! 😆 which i m a chinese i never have a chance to learn those ! thx !!!
"If you have a plasterboard wall... don't use this video - find a different one" the way she said that was just excellent thanks for the informative video!!
Best tutorial ever! You're a gem and a natural. Keep it up! Will be giving it a go this weekend. Ps if I don't have a hammer option, can I just keep drilling?
this video taught me better than my teacher screaming at me for 2 years in electrician school because I'm not strong enough to drill a hole into a thick wall...sometimes you dont need muscle (well maybe a little) just the right way to do it...thank you ma'am for that precious 8 min you just save me a lifetime
Best video I've watched thank you so so much for such a clear and detailed explanation. (Especially that masking tape tip!) Most other videos are for dry wall. I'm so sick of asking and waiting for multiple men (dad, uncle, good friends) to just help me put up a couple of f-ing curtain poles so i can have some privacy for the past 2 ½ f-ing years 🙄 nobody will explain to me how do it myself when I've asked to borrow the tools 'oh you'll probably need a hammer drill etc. I'll do it for you.' ...and this is how f-ing easy it is!? 🙄 apologies for the f-ing. I'm livid. There are holes being drilled all over my flat this weekend!
