Peeling potatoes is one of the most laborious chores as it can take a surprisingly long time if you're only using a peeler.
But a Youtube star has discovered an ingenious life hack that will peel your spuds in seconds - by using a drill.
Howard Taylor, a precision engineer from Stonehouse, Gloucestershire, inserts the drill into a potato and peels it as it rotates at speed.
The trick peels off the skin in a flash.
Howard runs a YouTube channel called Dubious Engineering, aimed at educating people on all things engineering in a humorous way.
He and his friend were looking to make some mashed potato for lunch when they came up with the clever hack for peeling spuds.
Howard said: 'We were using the drill to make some holes in the plastic casing of a vintage toy called a BigTrack.
