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. ;-)

Makita is popular around here. DeWalt have been pretty good for a while.
Now that we have 'Home Depot' we see more Milwaukee & Porter cable
tools, and Bosch is just too darn expensive.

Porter-Cable too expensive? What kind of R/O sander do you use on your
boat's bottom?

Said Bosch is too expensive, not Porter Cable.
I keep my Sandpiper on it's trailer...so far no need to sand bottom, I
just wash it clean.
