I've been needing some good electrical terminal block screwdrivers and was
wondering if I could make some better than the ones you buy. I've had some
that are hardened and break easy and others that are too soft. If I made
screwdrivers by machining drill rod and hardened and tempered, would they be
as good as or better than the top name brand commercial drivers? Or would
they need to be forged, cold worked, or something to achieve higher than
store-bought quality?

Hey, I need to justify my CNC lathe and mill somehow!!! :-)
