They will drill into most any home building material. 2. A set of screw driver bits to go with the drill. 3. A set of punches. (for starting holes in metal). 4. An assortment package of screws. 5. An assortment package of bolts and nuts. 6. A pair or set of channel lock pliers. 7. A set of vice locks. (usually 3 sizes in a pack and inexpensive at Walmart). Home Depot has several combos they are marketing now as well as Lowe's and Sears (Craftsman). I personally have five heavy duty pieces (Ryobi). Drill Press, Compound Saw, medium sized router and table, and a 71/2 inch power hand saw. I bought these a couple years ago for $99.00 each on the big pieces. The 3/8 inch drill was about $40.00.
