I must be doing something wrong! I'm brand new to power drills and DIY in general. I just bought a nice little set of Ryobi power tools. So I decide I'm going to install one of those easy-hang storm doors on my back door. The time comes to drill pilot holes to attach the hinge rail to the side of the door. I get my brand new drill and a brand new 1/8" drill bit (black oxide, rated for wood, plastic and metal) and set my drill to high speed and the collar to the drilling icon. I'm able to drill the first hole eventually after a lot of frustration but I can't drill the next hole at all. I made a little indentation but after spinning the drill for a while, I eventually broke the bit. I'm obviously doing something wrong. Watching videos on youtube it looks so simple! What on earth am I missing???
