Hey everyone! I'm totally new to DIY and I'm struggling with furniture assembly. The hex key that came with my furniture is driving me crazy. I'm curious about getting an electric drill to make this easier. Can anyone recommend what type of electric drill I should look for? Also, do I need a specific set of drill bits that can replace the hex key? I came across this Milwaukee drill combo kit and I'd love to know if it's suitable or if I should look for something else. I'd also appreciate any tips on drill bits that could work for other types of screws. Thank you for your help!

You should check out the M12 Install Driver! They have a great deal where you can pick up a free ratchet with the kit, which you can return later if you want, making the total only about $114. Plus, if you ever need to work on cars, keeping the ratchet might be handy! For your furniture assembly, just grab some hex bits from any brand. If you go for 1-inch bits, make sure you get a bit holder—only 2-inch or longer bits can be used directly in the tool.
Second this! It really will make your life easier.
Yup, that's a solid recommendation!
