I can think of one instance where a brace and screwdriver bit is the
*only* tool to use, and that is for shifting old, corroded screws,
especially the 6" x 14 type. There is a knack to setting the handle at 3
o' clock and whipping it up to 2 o'c. For some reason the impact shifts
things that would never move with just pressure


Impact driver is even better. Even the little Makita is brilliant for
removing slot head screws you just know are going to be a problem.
