As a man who grew up without a father, I appreciate videos like these.

[@victoriasong3390]

I discovered your channel after googling tools 101. I’m a college student and my dad taught nothing about tools. I am trying to be able to fix stuff around the house without having to call someone. I’m sure there are some thing I won’t be able to do because I am not trying to become a mechanic or expect but I just want to be able to learn some knowledge. Thank you for your videos!

[@stephaniecallaway8788]

I was trying to teach my daughter how to use my tools before I loaned them to her & I found your channel & she learned alot bc you made the info easy to understand for her, beginner. I sure didn't want my power tools coming back all messed up, so this worked great for her & she actually listened & learned! Thx! She listens to others, bc of course moms & dads don't know anything, haha! Thx for saving my power tools! Haha

[@NextJeneration]

Lol, love this!!!! 😂❤️

[@VanagandrAngr]

I have a bad relationship with my father and I am a girl so this video is extremely helpful. You really go into details and I needed that.Thank you!

[@nxtcosmic6081]

I LOVE your how to vids..they are SO informational, the way you two get into each tool in such detail is amazing and makes understanding the tools alot more easier I appreciate you you two and hope you guys keep more how too videos coming.

[@ArthurNeff]

Very thorough. Nobody ever explained step by step like that. I was an athlete for few decades that’s why I didn’t learn. Career ended and not coaching so I would rather have learned mechanical skills also. Thank you both.

[@lf9038]

I'm here after watching your other video in how to use a drill. I found it very helpful. Love all the tips!

[@josephineevans1986]

Awesome, great to see this, just the video I was asking about, thanks

[@bsherrod4912]

This is a really great video. It’s so thorough and easy. And I appreciate the goofy bits with the bloopers added in. Wow, this video is great!

[@LunarVision12]

Thank you so much for this video and the video on how to use the drill. I was married for 20 years and never had to learn. Now divorced (yay), I find myself having to learn how to be handy. Your videos helped me gain the confidence I needed to pick up the drill and get some home projects done.

[@NextJeneration]

I’m so happy to hear that ❤️❤️ You’ve got this! Let us know if there’s anything you’d like to see on our channel that would help you.

[@nimatallahoyeniran9202]

This is awesome, I'm excited to get a drill now and do some diy projects. Thanks to you guys ❤️❤️. Your explanation is straightforward and easy to follow 😁

[@NextJeneration]

I’m so happy to hear that!

[@lynnlim9178]

thank you so much for this video I feel like it’s already help for a million- now I can show this to my husband and get the work done!!👍👍👍

[@ukestasz]

Wow, this just saved me a lot of problems. Best explanations I’ve found. My late husband was a contractor, but his tools are too big. I got the drill you use and now understand all the fine details. I need to add a bit on my uke and now I won’t ruin the instrument. First I have to get the right drill bits!😁

[@johnjohnrn8655]

Great video. I don’t have my dad or a husband and I’m ready to DIY - I have a 4 year old and am in need of storage. Excited to keep learning, you guys explained picking bits very well.

[@dalawhite2428]

Thank you so much for that video, my husband pass away in 2017, and I'm having to do some small jobs around the house. very helpful.

[@TanishaMR]

These videos are awesome! I love tools & working with my hands 🥰

[@Jearrod]

That screw/bit size trick is what I needed thanks!

[@leeann2831]

New to DIYing and I just bought my first drill/impact driver set and I was wondering what to do with the short srew driver bits. The extender bit makes so much sense. Thanks for the tips!

[@west2663]

Bless you guys for going into detail about this stuff! I’m a home owners who’s just starting to do some home projects and I know nothing about any of this lol. New subscriber for sure!

[@jennyastricklandful]

Thank you so much for this! This was so helpful, so many other videos or guides use language and terms they expect you to know, even when they say it’s a beginners guide- this was perfect for me- a real beginner! I liked how u showed what happens to the wood and why. You explained everything so clearly without being patronising or over-talking it and admitting your own mistakes - helps me feel better! I hate being reliant on others to do diy jobs for me- this has given me the knowledge and confidence to do it myself 😁👍

[@NextJeneration]

This makes me so happy to read, thank you so much for your kind words!!

[@daltonwaters591]

Tomorrow my grandpa and I will use a drill this video really helped me 😀

[@wohill7437]

Wow! You’ve answered so many of my questions! Thank you so much and happy DIY-ing

[@devinadabba4692]

Hi, just came across your video on using a drill and let me tell you - you guys are great! You're my go for almost everything. Thank you!

[@NextJeneration]

Thank you!!

[@rquin0268]

Thank you for being detailed. I’m a 55 year old woman who hates asking people for help especially when I want something done right away. Always having to play the waiting game. Therefore, if I learn on my own my projects will no longer be on hold.

[@H.pylori]

Another useful video from the "Dynamic Duo!" Thank you.

[@NextJeneration]

Thank you!!!

[@beckya.9594]

This was great. Very helpful. My 13 year old and I are learning. Thk u.

[@hannahjoy7206]

This is SO helpful! I have been getting frustrated trying to use a drill today. Could you do an in-depth video on the torque to use for different bits, for example driving a screw, pre drilling, drilling into tile etc?

[@NextJeneration]

I’m so happy to hear this was helpful! We can definitely do that ☺️

[@Elliemaret]

Yes please!

[@lovenlight_]

Thank you so much! Love these videos!! 🙌🏼 🔥would love to see different ways to drill wood for creating a piece/furniture

Your channel name Jeneration. That’s cool as hell lol I know y’all were excited when y’all came up with that.

[@NextJeneration]

Lol!!!! Yesssss 😂😂

[@soulstarguidancereadingswi4938]

Cheers, great presentation

[@groeswenphil]

I turned 68 last week and that is when I learned that there is a difference between Philips and Pozidriv screws. If only I could go back in time and have a word with my eighteen year old self.

[@Elliemaret]

Just what I was looking for!! Thank you!

[@sayyid8901]

This was very helpful. Thanks NJ

[@zoesimpson3836]

9 months late to the party but thank you so much for this video and others! I've just moved into a place of my own and want to be able to do the 'big jobs' without relying on a tradesman or my male family members - I'm way too impatient to wait 😂 but the most DIY I've done on my own is with a hammer and nails hahaha. Your videos are really informative and explain stuff in a really simple way yet they aren't patronising unlike so many other videos I've seen! Keep it up with these kinda videos please 😁

[@NextJeneration]

I’m so happy to hear that!! You’ve got this girl 💪🏼🛠

[@shekinahzahab]

This was very helpful! Thank you!

[@coachangelap.wilson824]

Thanks so much to both of you, very useful videos, greatly explained, and makes me more confident to fix domestic things without asking other people for help, and going more adventurous safely and with least mistakes. 🥂Subscribed. Ta

Thank you for the video! Where can I get a clamp to hold the wood pieces? I believe the one I saw in the video is blue

Great video!

[@Deeplycoiled]

You guys are dope. Very helpful & I love that you have demonstrations!

[@NextJeneration]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that

[@ankewynmalen1186]

Dope? I thought that dope meant something negative, like "you dope!" 🤣😂

[@Deeplycoiled]

@@ankewynmalen1186 Haha no, not in this context. Dope generally means that something or someone is really good

[@rebeccahollar6821]

Hi! Thanks so much for your informative videos! My last comment was about size of drill bits… I was asking about size of drill- so apparently there is different sized DRILLS. 1/2” Drills, 3/8” DRILLS. Some jobs say make sure to used a 1/2” drill, for example. Do we need to buy multiple DRILLS, or can one drill do all the work. I have a cordless little screwdriver, but it takes for ever to drill a hole with it, if I did find a drill bit to fit into it. So I don’t think your video on “how to use a drill” went into how to “buy a drill” or “which drill do you need to buy” video… 😊 thank you.

[@NextJeneration]

I would buy the one we showed in that video. It’s extremely versatile and can be used for just about anything. The only time we use a different drill is when drilling into brick or concrete (we use a hammer drill for that)

My dewalt didn't come with drill pits? Do you buy those separately

[@NextJeneration]

Yes 😞

[@erikahernandez8745]

I bought drill bits without quick connect. For the wrong drill wish I had seen this first.

[@sinab2017]

Hey! I love your videos. This tool 1x1 is incredibly helpful to me! I'm not a native speaker, but improving my English while learning interesting stuff about tools and DIY is a cool plus. Small criticism: For me, the music that lays under the videos is too loud. I like it in the intro or time-lapses, but when you're explaining something it really distracts me and I find it not necessary. Thanks a lot !

[@ankewynmalen1186]

I agree!

[@6846981]

You have a great channel with great information and even a great logo. My only recommendation, please remember to always use a microphone when recording. Your content deserves a better sound.

[@NextJeneration]

We’ve been told… looking into new equipment!

[@MarkSmith-lt3ug]

Thank you

[@americadosul678]

Make a video on how to use a stud finder

[@NextJeneration]

Will do!

[@natrahlee2318]

What does the variety number of V means? What is the difference between 88V drill and 48V drill?

[@NextJeneration]

Ours is a 20V. The higher the volt, the lower the amperage (less power). So an 80V drill will do the same amount of work as a 40V, but using less power therefore taking longer and more battery.

[@natrahlee2318]

@@NextJeneration I see….I get it now. Thank you guys! I learnt a lot from this video.

[@Lovley11649]

1:50 what is that blue and black device?

[@NextJeneration]

Those are clamps!

how to drill into brick wall, so i can hand trellis.

[@NextJeneration]

Use a “concrete bit” in your drill. We personally like using a hammer drill for our brick

[@Veronica-678]

thank you

[@ladeedaa1419]

Your channel is very ADHD friendly and that’s a hard niche to target. I’ve watched a few videos and they can’t keep my interest and focus. Please do more!

[@NextJeneration]

Yesssss we’re the SAME WAY GIRL! Glad you can relate 😂😂

[@stephaniecallaway8788]

Oh she did ask me, " how does she know which size prehole(twist hole bit) bit to use for the different screw size? My mom taught me years ago, really by feel & eyeing it, lol... so I just had her give me the screws & I bagged the different size screws for each project with the correct size twist hole drill bit for her. I'd like to tell her how to figure it out on her own, so I can just hand her my drill bit set(s) & her know how to pick the correct twist bit to the screw size. Is there an easy answer I can give her going forward? Thx so much!

[@stephaniecallaway8788]

Looks like if I had kept watching, you answered it! 🙄 Lol.. better yet, I've forwarded her this video so she can refer back to it. Cheers!

[@NextJeneration]

You’re a great mom!!! Bagging the screws with the bits ❤️❤️ hope this video can help her!
