New toy, sorry tool

Post by kees »

I got a new toy, sorry tool, for my birthday from our son Niall.
Amazing piece of kit, very simple but extremely effective for removing stuck screws with damaged slotted, phillips, pozidriv, hexagon etc. heads.

I had a damaged and firmly stuck screw in my hardtop holding the half-moon shaped trim piece in the middle just in front of the filler cap. It had been defying me for years, using all kinds of purpose made bits etc.
Using these special pliers, it was a matter of 2 seconds before there was some movement, and it subsequently came out without any fight.

These look great!
There are so many tools I've never seen or even heard of.
I quite often see Steve Payne at his home and he loves showing his latest new tool or gadget, some are simply amazing.
I really like the socket set he has, with a dial on the end of the shaft so when space is limited, instead of turning the handle repeatedly 1/16 of a turn due to lack of space, you simply turn the end of the handle and it tightens/un-tightens.
