Last week we talked about some of our favorite screwdrivers and asked about your favorites. Now we’re going to talk a bit about our go-to drivers. You know, the ones that are up front, within easy reach on the bench. For speed and production driving, I grab my SnapOn ratcheting driver (see the above photo, driver on […]

Sanyo Eneloop Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries
Sanyo’s Eneloop batteries differ from ordinary NiMH rechargeable batteries by featuring a very slow self-discharge rate. In fact, Eneloops are shipped fully charged and ready to go. I’ve already switched over to using Eneloops over other rechargeable battery brands, and even use them in place of alkalines in many applications. Eneloops and other slow self-discharge batteries are said […]

Facom Ergotwist Screwdrivers – Another Favorite!
Continuing with our favorite screwdriver week, let’s take a look at Facom’s Ergotwist Combination screwdriver set. I have a 16 piece set of these Ergotwist drivers, and consider it to be my all time favorite. The handles are of a bi-material design that features an impact resistant top and softer grip for comfort.

In case you forgot, we won a mobile tool cart, by Western Dovetail. After much anticipation, the ready-to-assemble kit has arrived! A full review is in the works, but thus far it’s safe to say that the quality is absolutely fantastic. Everything from the shipping packaging to the wood finish to the anodized drawer pulls.

Ratchets, Sockets, Wrenches, oh My!
How many different tools can you use to tighten or loosen nuts and bolts? Many. Check out 10 Torque Tools for Nuts & Bolts over at Popular Mechanics, where I discuss some of the most popular options. Before you say it, yes, I know, my tools are too clean! I wipe ’em down after every […]
Wiha’s Orbit Screwdriver
In yesterday’s post, Alex mentioned that when preparing to adjust his headlights he had an overwhelming number of screwdrivers to choose from. So which did he use for the job? One of Wiha’s Orbit screwdrivers. These drivers have pivoting tips that allow up to 20° of offset, useful for hard-to-reach fasteners.
So How Do You Like Your Screwdrivers?
After driving around and blinding everyone on the road, I decided that it was time to adjust the headlights on my truck. When I opened the screwdriver drawer of my toolbox, I was momentarily overwhelmed with the many tools choices ready to tackle the task at hand. We all know how important it is to have the […]
Jackson Pulverizer – Concrete Busting Demo Hammer
Jackson’s Pulverizer is primarily a concrete demolition tool, but it’s multi-purpose enough to use for general demo work. The Pulverizer is 12.8″ long with a 1-1/2″ strike face and hefty 3-1/2 lb total weight. It also features a wedge for ripping through drywall, claw teeth for gripping and prying, a 2-inch scraper with large nail-puller head, […]
Offset Screwdrivers – Once You Need ’em, You’ll Love ’em
I’ve never really been a fan of offset screwdrivers – they just didn’t seem too convenient to me. Until now. There was a fastener I needed to reach in a really low-clearance area, and none of my usual low-profile drivers fit. None, except for the offset Phillips driver that sat unused in a drawer for a few years […]
PB Swiss & Wiha Sales on Amazon
ToolGuyd contributor JeffD wanted to share these photos of his recent Amazon.com purchases. Can you guess what the total cost was for the above screwdrivers? Go head, guess.
New Pocket-Friendly Sog Micro ToolClip with Pliers
The ToolClip is the newest pocket-sized multi-tool in Sog’s growing lineup. Despite its size, Sog manages to pack a lot of features into the ToolClip – compact plier with wire cutter and spring-return, a knife blade, 2 screwdrivers, a file, and pocket clip. I’ve got to say, it looks pretty darn good. The list price is […]
