Your younger sibling is trying to tighten a screw using a butter knife because there’s no screwdriver nearby. Question: Is this safe? What should you do instead?
It’s not safe — a butter knife can slip and cause injury. The correct thing to do is find the proper screwdriver or wait until one is available.
You are building a small box and every time you hammer a nail, the thin wood starts to crack. Question: What should you do to prevent the wood from splitting?
Drill or tap a small guide hole first, or use a thinner/narrower nail to reduce the pressure and avoid cracking the wood.
You notice that your bedroom door handle is loose. You have a hammer, screwdriver, and nails in your toolbox. Question: Which tool should you use to fix it, and why?
Use the screwdriver because door handles are held by screws, and tightening them is the safest and proper solution.
