Screw Driver Mod
Revision: 12/08/2008
Introduction:
I'm always looking for usable and unique tools, for home, car, and more important my motorcycle. This screw driver mod would be a great addition to your home, car, and motorcycle tool kit.
Tools / Materials:
- I used a Dremel tool.
- Epoxy glue.
 |
I bought this screw driver at Sears. It is will made and can be used as a T-handle for stubborn screws. The screw driver does have draw backs:
I found a solution to make it into a great tool.
Home Depot, Sears: $6.99 - $7.99 |
The idea is to attach a magnetic bit holder to the screw driver shaft. The magnetic bit holders come differents sizes. Some are short others are long; Some have weak magnet or strong magnets. |
 |
|
I happen to have a couple of magnetic bit holders, in my tool box. There are different lengths and brands available. I decided to use the shorter one of the two, for my screw driver modification.
Harbor Freight, Sears, Home Depot: $1.99 - $6.99 |
I used my handy Dremel tool cut off about 5/8ths of an inch, from the bit holder shaft, so it would seat flush with the screw driver shaft. |
 |
 |
This is what the magnetic bit holder looks like if I don't shorten the bit holder shaft. |
|
You can use any glue. I used epoxy to glue the bit holder in place. |
|
|
This is what screw driver looks like apart. |
The screw driver converts into a Tee handle driver for extra torque. |
 |
|
This is a simple screw driver mod that is versatile inexpensive and COOL.
Good luck and ride safe. |
