But I agree: colour-coded sizes, NEVER strips, and you actually CAN

screw in the screwdriver to get it to where you want it.

I wouldn't say 'never strips'. This afternoon, I loosened one that was
partially stripped by my corded Craftsman Professional drill/driver.
I was able to re-use it but the bit spun some in the slot.



Now if you want a real debate..........let's talk about the crappy quality
of Craftsman electric tools.

Give me a DeWalt any day. ;-)


If I told you that Craftsman electric hand tools were made by DeWalt,
would that make a difference? :)


Nope. they also make Black and Decker. Different quality, different price
point. I bought a Craftsman's 18V drill for the jacks on my camper. Came
with 2 batteries and a light. Takes 2 batteries to take the camper off the
truck as the batteries are light duty, and the drill is a wimp. Plus the
collet chuck is the worst I have ever seen for staying tight.
