Cordless impact driver and angled bit holder
I bought one of these ages ago to pad out a Screwfix order to free
postage: http://www.screwfix.com/prods/61688/...led-Bit-Holder Had very low expectations of it, in fact had left it laying in a tool box for a year or so. Today I used it with a cordless impact driver, expecting it to be a smack-your-fingers swine to control, if it worked at all. It actually worked brilliantly, driving a 6 * 80mm turbogold into hardwood (in hammer mode) - with virtually no torque reaction coming back through the sleeve. |

I have had one of those for over 5 years. The cheapest I saw was in Maplin. The driver bit has to be right in the screw and it works fine. I have never used it with an Impact driver though. |

Let's find out how long it lasts. |

Try it. Let's find out how long it lasts. Probably not long. But if it deals with 1 in a 100 screws that have to go in/come out of dark corners - it's worthwhile. |
