No where near the poop knife, but people are weirded out that I use a power drill for dishes. I don't have a washer and the drill dose things a rag could never conceive of.
Like make a hole in it?
They use a special bit for dishes. The dish bit destroys the dishes so you never have to clean them again!
It's an option.
But not the one fate had in mind
I sometimes use the drill for the hand cranked coffee grinder when I'm late and forgot to grind coffee the night before.
To be fair we own a coffee grinder but we use it for grinding dried chillies.
After an earlier Lemmy/reddit comment, im buying a second electric coffee grinder for Dried Mushrooms and Chillis.
Is it something like the Drill Brush? https://www.amazon.com/Drillbrush-Bathroom-Surfaces-Scrubber-Cleaning/dp/B01MRLZ43B. I have some of those and haven't tried them on dishes, but they work great for cleaning grout.
Aren't you worried about getting the drill wet?
Yep, everyone is some how freaked out over water damaging a $20 drill. It's 12v, I can lick that voltage if I wanted. The only down side is splash back at full power.
By "arenβt you worried about getting the drill wet?" I was more concerned about damaging the drill. I guess it makes sense you'd use a cheap drill for it.
