Hi,
does anyone have any recommendation for decent bits for an electric screwdriver. I have just bought a Bosch 24v drill/driver and wanted some decent screwdriver bits. Saw a set if Piranha that looked good, but wanted to use the collective wisdom of this forum! Thanks Roger |

I have piles of em. The carpenters showed me a box of screws they had gpot from screwfix *I think) inside was a bit for use with teh csrews. It lasted nearly as long as the box of screws. Seems that is teh ay to go. Get a cheap bit every time you stock up with screws, and leave it in the screw box. Throw it away when the screws are finished. Thanks Roger |

Yes, I decided that too. having tried expensive ones and more expensive diamond impreganted ones I decided the more expensive ones didn't last longer enough to be worth it. I did find that cheap Axminster ones were better than cheap Screwfix ones though. -- Chris Green |
