I've got pretty much every modern power tool one could ever want, including half a dozen power drills. I even have a very good quality floor model Drill Press. That said, once in a while when I have only one or two small holes to drill I will break out one of my vintage hand drills or Brace. I get a kick out of using them and for small jobs I get them done in a jiffy - quicker than pulling out a power drill. Great when you don't feel like making noise. 
Today I had to drill two small screw holes on a shelf and I used the medium sized drill pictured below. It was my Grandfather's and then my Father's. I got that warm fuzzy feeling!
Any of you guys do the same?
