This Halloween, don't spend your money on a pumpkin-carving kit that may or may not be easy to work with. Instead, use the household tools you already have to make your pumpkin creations.
A drywall saw, for instance, cuts through a pumpkin with ease. You'll find that this tool makes the carving process go much faster than the small knives that come with carving kits.
Use a drill and a few drill bits to make a beautiful design on your pumpkin. Start by marking a dotted design on the pumpkin's skin. Then drill large holes with a spade bit...
...and smaller holes with a twist bit.
