The Hand Drill is a manual crank drill. It bores holes in wood and in metal. It is the drill most scrap crafting recipes call for.

It matters most for scrap weapons, bone jewellery and improvised armour. Welders, carpenters and anyone working with tires all reach for it sooner or later. Its main strength is that it handles both wood and metal. Its cost is a little extra weight next to cruder drills.

The drill is found in pawn shops, mechanics, morgues and survivor safehouses. The Carpenter is the best occupation for tools. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. The Construction Worker and the DIY Expert also start with some Carpentry skill.

Using

The drill is a kept tool in many recipes. Welding uses it for scrap metal weapons such as the Sawblade Hatchet, the Scrap Metal Cleaver and the Scrap Metal Sword. Carpentry uses it to fit sawblades, railspikes and garden fork heads onto bats and cudgels. Maintenance uses it for bolt bats and bucket and kettle mauls.

It also works on softer materials. Bone beads, a Bone Whistle, tooth and tusk necklaces and a Wood Mask are all drilled with it. Tire armour and Tire Sandals need it to punch holes in the rubber. Most of these drilled items can be worn for extra protection.

The Auger Drill and the Stone Drill are cruder tools meant for wood. The Hand Drill outlasts both of them. The Auger Drill wears at about one in eight and the Stone Drill at about one in three. In return the Hand Drill weighs twice as much as either.

Upkeep

Each use has about a one in ten chance to cost the drill some condition. Steady crafting will wear it down over time. Research Craft on a drill teaches Forge Drill and Knap Stone Drill, so a replacement can be made.

Locations

Mannequin factory counters hold one about one time in seven. Pawn shops and their storage rooms are nearly as good. Coroner offices and morgues keep them on counters and in cabinets. Mechanic shop shelves, logging factories and farming bags turn one up now and then. Survivor safehouses, sheds, warehouses and storage rooms give smaller chances.
