Power Tools "All aboard"

Famed railroad engineer Casey Jones was born this day in 1864. An American folk hero honored in song, he immortalized the cry "All aboard!" As he drove the legendary cannonball express at breakneck speeds throughout the south. Just like Casey, power tool manufacturers are now saying: "All aboard!" Today, power tools are better than their predecessors in both performance and accessories. New drills without a cord now carry more handy ?goodies? on board. In addition to an adjustable clutch, a keyless chuck, and dual batteries with variable speed forward and reverse drive, there's also a drill bit size selector, a removable stud finder, a built-in level, a light that illuminates the drill bit tip (for working in dark spaces), and battery level indicator lights that tell you how much power is left. Ready for drills that are chock full of nifty accessories? Like Casey said, they're ?all aboard!?
