I know what you are thinking, a drill is a drill. Did you really need to tear apart two of them for this article? On some level, that is true. A drill is a drill. They share a lot of the same approaches and even the same components. They both use Samsung batteries. They both share a basic configuration of a pistol grip balanced on either end by a battery and motor. They both use a traditional chuck that was likely purchased from a 3rd party. They both have a decent center of gravity that doesn’t add undue stress or twist on your wrist or arm. Neither are game changers either. They are members of the orchestra assembled by their respective companies. They are just company ‘tools’ towing the corporate line. That orchestra plays a big part in the design.

Listen to either of them speak on the topic (or read one of their books) and you’ll find a common theme: They use that pressure to their advantage. Lakosky, for example, almost never hunts the timbered areas of his properties. Instead, he creates food plots in areas well away from overzealous neighbors and leaves the core areas of his properties as pressure-free sanctuaries. Deer will move into these safe havens (and away from the pressured property lines) and visit the secure food plots in daylight. —T.H.

Frustrated by nonelectric dehydrators that didn’t function in their humid climate, Walk decided to test her “hot tin roof ” theory: She spread a bunch of produce on a window screen, covered it with black cloth, weighted it down with a storm window, and set the whole shebang atop their home’s metal roof. The “aha!” results led the duo to devise more formal, and popular, plans for their Radiant Super Dryer. We simplified the design to fit standard materials, so anyone with basic carpentry skills can construct this DIY dehydrator in a single weekend.

Makita boasts of a shorter length and lighter weight which led them to design a three-part housing versus the simpler two-part clamshell of the Ryobi. At first blush, I took this three-part housing as a design decision to allow for a well considered vent pattern on the tail end of the drill. I briefly applauded the designers’ ability to get engineering buy-in on this moment of design excess. Upon pulling apart the housings and comparing the Makita to its dissected counterpart, I realized that Makita integrated the housing of the drill and the motor housing. That third part added to the design includes a molded detail to support the rear motor bearing and is key to reducing the size and weight of the product. Ryobi’s motor is completely entombed in a metal cylinder that is not conducive to non-destructive investigation and by comparison is HEAVY and BIG. It is both obvious and hard to say which solution is better.

To Endeavor the ingestion of drywall screws sub-markets, in regards to vital regions (and their important states).

We might practice shooting from long range, while seated, and from treestands, but few of us practice shooting in the low light whitetails prefer.
