You need one if you do more than a very occasional diy job.
I've never needed one, as every time I need one, I always find a way
around it, using screwdriver bits held in a 3/8" adaptor, tapping +
plus gas + a lot of pressure.
Since then i've also bought an air impact wrench.
That's not to say a manual one wouldn't be useful though to a self
confessed tool-a-holic.

Nothing wrong with being a tool-a-holic, Paul. Acknowledging it in
public is the first step to a cure :-) Every day and every way
etc....
If you want of course ;-)
