The right screwdriver...

[08BusaKY]

After all these years of working on cars and bikes I did not know this.

Tool knowledge is so important, it can mean the difference between loosening a screw or 'screwing up' a screw, and by that I mean stripping out the head of a screw causing a lot of time and anguish to correct the problem . . . caused by using the WRONG tool for the job!

Lol, yep
but once upon a time, there was no competition for their quality.
Fortunately you can get good quality in other brands now.

Yeah, I like the little serrated 'teeth' on the Phillips ends that really bite and grip the star drive in the screw. Good design!

What set did you order?

 

[ottafish]

Ordered a Vessel jis 12 piece kit for the garage and the set that c10 linked to for the on-bike kit.
Think it's time to sort through the screwdrivers I already have and rationalize the 30+ years of collecting.

I prefer an ez out. Then you have the chance of the ez out breaking off and throwing the entire part in the garbage!

I remember this thread and never commented on it but I will now.... little trick I've picked up is a bit of valve lapping compound on the tip of the Phillips tip can help get that extra grip you need fir the pesky Japanese Phillips screws
