Power Tool versus Hand Tool, Which One Do You Prefer?

I’m considering buying a tool for my woodworking. I asked my friends, finding that many like using power tools. OFC it is because they often work with tools.

The question pops into my head. What about those people who don’t often use tools, what will be their choice?

Do you guys prefer to use power or hand tools?

I prefer power tools, which require less effort and are more efficient. :face_with_monocle:

If it’s for infrequent use, I would opt for manual tools as they offer better cost-effectiveness. However, it’s important to note that manual tools may not match the efficiency and comfort provided by powered tools.

I prefer to use hand tools, becase they are generally more affordable, require less maintenance.

I personally prefer power tools because I am a bit “lazy”. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Power tools can help me eliminate some tedious processes, saving me more energy and time.
