To drill a hole you strike the top of the tool with a hammer,
and then twist about 1/8 turn. The hammer blow breaks the
rock matrix under the tip of the bit, and twisting reorients
the bit to ensure an even hole. Periodically, you remove the
drill and use a small plastic tube to blow out the accumulated
rock dust.
