Yes, there’s a scientific explanation, but we prefer to think this magnetizing/demagnetizing tool relies on magic. Stick a screwdriver head in the bottom, it’s magnetized. Stick it in the top, it’s demagnetized. Fun for the whole family. Measures 2” square x 1-1/4” with stair-step ports for blades of different sizes. Never drop a screw again.

The 8-in-1 screwdriver/flashlight combo from iZoom® features un-lose-able drivers. Includes slotted 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", Phillips #0, #1, #2, plus mini-slotted and Phillips, all on hinges at the bottom of the light. Swing them up and they snap in place with the light as a handle. The light/handle has (6) cool-white LEDs shining at 100 lumens. The whole shebang measures 5” long x 1-3/4” dia. and requires 3 "AAA' batteries which are included. 

The pipe wrench's gentle cousin, a strap wrench works with rubber straps instead of steel jaws. This strap wrench fits objects up to 4" across in virtually any shape—like oil filters, shower heads, faucets, bottle and jar lids, PVC fittings, stuff like that. Flexible strap makes it easier in confined spaces. From GRIP® Tools.

This 34-piece set of chrome vanadium bits includes 1/4" hex bits with (8) security Torx from T8 to T40; (3) Pozi from PZ1 to PZ3; (2) Phillips at PH1 & PH2; (6) security Hex from H2 to H6; (4) Tri-wing from Y1 to Y4; (4) spanner head from U4 to U10; (3) Torq from S6 to S10; and a 6mm slotted bit. All are 3” long. Includes (2) mag-demag blocks, and a storage case.

We like these small pliers and cutters - they're a higher quality than most of the Chinese import tools we're offered. They are drop-forged, high-carbon steel with double-leaf springs, lap joints and rubberized foam handles. There is a trim 6" needle nose, and a 4-1/2" mini-round diagonal cutter. For precision work and hobbies, and especially nice for anyone with small hands.

From the inimitable Stanley® Tools, this 6-in-1 screwdriver is maybe the best thing to happen to the screwdriver since screws. The reversible, stainless steel shaft has small Phillips and flat-heads on one end, and larger versions on the other. Plus the shaft doubles as 1/4-inch and 5/16-inch nut drivers. You might own one of these already, but if there isn't another one in your basement, kitchen, garage, glove compartment, desk, boat, golf bag, briefcase and laundry room, you need more.

You need this. Anybody who's ever made a third trip to the hardware store on the same day needs this. The (100) -- count 'em, (100) -- chrome vanadium driver and bit attachments include slotted, Phillips, square (Robertson) head, torx, hex and 12-point bits, plus security Phillips, torx and hex, and (4) different driver adapters (one of which, a super-cute cup-hook driver, has us oddly excited). They're all in a flip-top plastic case. How come it's surplus? If you turn it upside down and shake it, some of the bits fall out of their little size-marked slots. So don't do that. Or stick a thin sheet of foam inside it and all will be well.

And it’s cute. Just 4-3/8" long with a pocket clip, it looks like a pen but it has (8) driver bits stored in the barrel. The 5/32” hex bits include slotted 2mm, 3mm, Phillips #1, #2  and torque T5, T6, T7 and T8. We’ll pick one in red, black or blue, because who cares? In assorted colors of red, blue or black. 

Sometimes you need to screw around corners, and we feel your pain. Try this flexible extension shaft for your drill or driver. Accepts 1/4” bits. Measures 9” long over all with a flexible portion that’s 4-1/2” long and will bend 180 degrees.
