You have to hold the fat end of this while you spin the drill. My corded electric drill has too much torque; I can't hang on to it. I turn it down to low speed, and it hasn't enough oomph. I'm wondering if I get a cordless drill, maybe that would work better. Or maybe I just need stronger hands.
Is there any pop-rivet tool designed for folks with weak hands?
