7. Milwaukee 0302-20 1/2" Electric drill

Why he'll love it:

Sometimes, there is just no better tool for the job than a powerful dumb electric drill. In the tool industry, Milwaukee is known for their exceptionally tough tools and their 0302-20 Magnum 1/2" drill is no exception. One of the most powerful hand drills currently available, the massive 8 amp motor drives an all-metal gearbox making it easy to drill through, well, almost anything. Bit slippage is a thing of the past-carbide jaws inside the ratcheting metal chuck bite down HARD and don't let go. In case the power cord is ever damaged, replacing the power cord is a breeze with the handy Quik-Lok cord system-just twist to remove the old cord, insert a new one, twist to lock, and go. The drill is well-balanced, ergonomically designed, and features a side handle that can be rotated 360 degrees for maximum pushing power. Your dad will love the power this tool offers and you can be assured that thanks to it's durable construction, it will last a lifetime.
