screwdrivers

By "pump screwdriver", do you mean a "Yankee" or spiral ratcheting
screwdriver? Lee Valley still sell the drivers, bits, and a
converter to use standard hex bits with them:

Yes , i am based in the UK so its uneconomical to purchase small
items from the USA by the time they slap on vat , import fees ,
handling and postage a small 3 dollar item ends up around $50 .


Same with replacement parts for handplanes what you pay a few
dollars for in the states in the uk its just as cheap to buy a new
plane
