Anyone remember Barry on the telly in the early 70s with his hardboard,
Formica and Evo-Stick?

I'm amazed that no-one seems to have mentioned the big Yankee spiral
ratchet screwdriver (used with pre-drilled pilot and main holes, of
course, so everything went together incredibly quickly and easily).

Now, of course, with decent rechargable drill-drivers and twinstart
screws anyone can put stuff together just as quickly!

I still have a small real Yankee screwdriver and a large imitation one. I
used the small one last week. It gets to places a power drill cannot reach.
