The Price is Right

[Paul Williams]

This cute litte screwdriver set was on sale at Menards for $2.50 with a $2.50 rebate. Free is the right price so I bought a few. They are a little funky and benefit from a turned handle. I got the idea for the bit storage from a magazine article I saw last summer. A small magnet and a small head finish screw hold the lid shut. This is my pototype from a scrap of elm with a quick WOP finish. I think they will make nice gifts.

What a great idea, Paul! And the price is right...

[Doug Herzberg]

Very nice. I can never find my stubby, and when I do it's the flat when I wanted the Phillips, or vice-versa. Only thing I would wish for is a set of square drives and some Torx bits, but you can only make the handle so big.

[Greg Just]

Great idea. I have taken a plastic handled multi-use screwdriver and cut the handle off, but this takes it one step further with some storage.

[Bill Hensley]

That's just darn clever. I'm going to do that on some bit holders.

[Michelle Rich]

very clever & useful

[Bernie Weishapl]

Now that is a clever idea. Well done on the driver.

[Ed Morgano]

Great idea Paul. What did you do to attach the bit holder to the handle? Is it epoxyed in?

[Paul Williams]

Ed, I planned to use epoxy,but it was such a tight fit that I just used a bit of CA on the shaft.

[Baxter Smith]

Neat idea and very useful too!
