I didn't want to hijack Louis' thread so I have another question.
I understand that the impact driver is great for driving screws and nuts onto bolts. However, how does it do at driving all kinds of drill bits? Bits like twist, spade, forstner, and brad point bits into both wood and metal.
Also, how does it do on backing screws out of various materials, especially wood. I build my deck about 15 years ago and screwed to deck boards on. I recently had to remove some of the boards, and ended up stripping out or breaking off the heads on most of the screws. Would the impact driver help on getting these screws out?
