You can use any bit set with any brand

Tools are a great bang for the buck. Nothing compares at that price. Bits are absolute shit.

I would also stress to a new diy person that an impact driver is only as good as your bits and hardware. They can tear right thru crappy hardware that often comes included with products. Either stripping or snapping in half. Also there is usually no torque setting so an inexperienced person may go way too deep.

I’m gonna second this being a poor spot for the TV. As others have already mentioned it’s too high, and your cables will be exposed.

There are TV mantle mounts where you can bring the screen down to a more optimal viewing height. My brother has one and it works very well. But why you would ever want to ruin the look of your fireplace is puzzling. It should be the central focus. Not a TV above it.

For what it’s worth i do like the addition of a mantle cuz Santa

A toaster oven. Done

Find a way to afford a plumber. No shower for a week? It’s worth it
