Among the greatest inventions of mankind are the power tools. This tool makes work, whether it be in a home or in a manufacturing company, easy to do. Many different types of power are used, including electricity, batteries, fuel, compressed air and many others.

Evidence has been found that the ancient Egyptians used one of these tools, the lathe, although the power at that time actually came from the person's hand. Through the years of progress, the idea has developed to what is on the market today. When one walks into any store, where they are sold, one is faced with row after row of these tools, all with special features.

Manufacturing plants discovered very early the convenience of lathes in the production. Being able to have one person watch several machines, instead of having them individually watched, was found to be a great savings. Many individuals have found the lathe to be an excellent tool when building unique wooden bowls and other things.

When there is a job to be done, such as home remodeling, a number of jobs require power tools. A saw for cutting two by fours, plasterboard and other items is a primary requirement. Many thousands of hours are saved by not having to do these chores by hand.

One of the most productive power tools being used today is the electric hammer. This hammer allows a speedy installation of roofing, siding and other construction projects. In addition, it does not put a strain on the arms and shoulder that used to occur when pounding with a regular hammer.

Power tools have expanded to the outside world as well. Used in lawn care, clearing trees and other such projects one can find them in use everywhere. There is no doubt that these tools have allowed the average person to be able to construct and repair things that would have taken an incredibly long time to do by hand.
