The ratcheting screwdriver picture thread

[plinker]

Someone had mention having one of these thread's in a different thread, so here it is. So post what you've got



Here's my collection,

I still need to get a green soft grip stubby from Snap-on, but otherwise this should cover most of my need's (want's are another thing). The blue T-handle I bought from Brownells, but it's made by Snap-on for them.

The one's without shanks are interchangeable style, the other's are "fixed" shank.

HOLY C**P!!!

I don't think I seen a long ratcheting driver before...

 

[Sick Puppy]

Sir, if I was wearing a hat, I would doff it to you! That is a nice collection!!!

Now, if you happen to have a few stubby / tee / standard ones in a bright colour you'd consider selling, let me know!

[jeffmoss26]

Plinker, I have never seen fixed shanks like that. Very cool.
gj67stang, I think you have one too many orange stubby ratcheting screwdrivers! (I want one!)

 

[canuckian]

Nice pics guys! Have a few coming to me at the moment and still have a couple more to get though I doubt I'll ever have the sheer quantity that GJ97stang has! Trying to keep my set to one of each color or edition. Also have some from other companies. I'll have to remember to snap a pic at some point.

It's a lime version I picked up and put black end & reverse cap's on since I could not find lime ones (looks better anyway). I'll dig up the part#'s later.

Thanks but not that one... I meant The olive drab looking one with tan looking ends. Love the color combo on that! Part number please!

 

[Tarpley]

Hey gj67stang, where did you find the light blue screwdriver on the top row 11 over from the left?

Green body with tan cap and ring is the "Wounded Warrior" ratcheting screwdriver.

IIRC, it was only available off the truck and some of the proceeds goes to the military's "Wounded Warrior" program.

I'm new to the ratcheting screwdriver bandwagon, but I did recently invest in a fairly complete set of shanks, including the one that lets you use the handle as a 1/4" speeder brace. It's cheaper than the corresponding single-purpose speeder, and has the benefit that I can use the 5 position handle to make it a pistol grip speeder, which can be convenient. Also shown is my Wiha Topra. I like the gearless ratcheting, but I wish it held the blades more securely like the static Drive-Loc VI handle does so I could use it with my Drive-Loc VI blades without having to worry about them slipping and bottoming out inside the handle. Makes me a little leery about using this one for heavy-duty work, even with the single-ended bit holding shank in.

 

[jeffmoss26]

Here is my modest collection...
The red and orange on the far left and right were both purchased new from GJ members, the red/white/blue and black were purchased used, and the red one in the middle was a gift from my secret santa!

 

[m_hatcher]

I noticed that you can get the stubby ratcheting drivers in black and orange. Snap-on ever put one out in green?

That has to be the biggest collection of ratcheting screwdrivers ..

 

[Biomed]

The blue T-handle I bought from Brownells, but it's made by Snap-on for them.

Another option is the Williams T-handles. They offer 3 sizes - 2", 3 7/8" and 7 7/8". The Williams are also cheaper than Snap-on or Brownells at $22.96 for the 2" and 3 7/8" T-handles.

Here is a photo of the WRST4:

Apparently the finish quality is not as good as their SO counterparts... I did have them watched on eBay for a fair while though, I'm dithering between buying used SO vs new Williams...

 

[plinker]

While I've no issue with their being made in Taiwan, apparently the finish quality is not as good as their US counterparts... I did have them watched on eBay for a fair while though, I'm dithering between buying used SO vs new Williams...

That particular tool and others are made in the USA, not everything Williams has in Taiwan or otherwise.

I was going to get the Williams instead of the Brownells, but I decided black is too plain for my already multi-colored collection.

Thanks for that - I was of the impression they were made in Taiwan, but that was due to my imposing my line of thought that Blue Point and Williams are all of Taiwanese COO... my bad, thanks for that!

 

[pipsters]

Really? I was of the impression they were made in Taiwan - a post a few weeks back said as much, and commented on the finish, hence my post... my bad, thanks for that!

I've bought two Williams ratcheting screwdrivers, one as recently as last month, and they both were US, with US bits included, I believe the same ones Snap-On puts in (IIRC they were Snap-On part #'s).

 

[Sick Puppy]

Thanks for that If only they were in brighter colours! lol

Alrighty then everyone, as per my sig, I'm looking to buy some SO ratcheting screwdrivers, so if any of you have any standard / stubby / Tee with long shank that you wish to sell in green, yellow, pink, orange or red, let me know. Thanks!

Here 8 more not pictured above:

70th anniversary, Chrysler Gold, Snap-on Racing, kelly green St. Patty's Day, Retro, orange Mike Skinner, Vikings, orange 24"

 

[jeffmoss26]

GJ I hate you haha
PS, I sent you a PM

 

[Brownsfan]

I have a 2 t-handles long and short. 1 regular 1 stubby and 1 ergonomic. Why do you guys have so many? I use mine all the time pretty much daily. Do you just collect them or do you use them? Anyways I an=m still drooling over some of the collections. I LOVE Snap-on ratcheting screwdrivers. They are my most used tools

 

[jeffmoss26]

I use them and collect them lol

Wow, as if the other pic wasn't enough wow. Very nice collection!

The one who has more tools wins. This should be posted in WTF. Just kidding. Speechless.

 

[magova1104]

What a beautiful collection GJ ! C mon, tell me where do you live and what time you go to work.

 

[Altec]

Most of mine. Still have a few more I want...

Nice additions, gj67stang! Gotta find myself one of those chrysler ones someday. Thought about going after the NFL and NASCAR ones but knowing myself I wouldn't stop until I had them all lol. I think I'll stick to the colors and vehicle related ones for my own sanity!

Just speaking for myself, I have a full orange set that I use regularly but the rest are basically a collection of sorts. Some people collect antiques, star wars action figures, garage memorabilia, etc..... I collect particular snap on hard handled ratcheting screwdrivers. Still have a few to go but knowing snap on, the list will never end as they keep owing out with new ones!

I don't think I've ever posted any of mine on this thread. was moving a few things around and snapped a pic of the pistol grip ones. There's another yellow and orange one around here somewhere but these would belong in the "spare" category lol.

I have one for my vehicle tool kit, two in the house for whatever I need + gunsmithing, one currently on loan & the rest are in my work tool boxes. I just like having a selection to pick from. I could get by with one or two, but where's the fun in that?

I really dont use regular screwdriver's much anymore unless I have to.
I do have a couple of flat's I use for prying stuff and other abuse.

 

[jeffmoss26]

Canuckian, I hate you...lol
Altec, the green one with the short shank is neat!

 

[magova1104]

My favorite ratcheting screwdriver is the snap on one, but I like Felo, Facom and of course the most beautiful screwdriver: The PB SWISS!

 

[jeffmoss26]

Ok, I need details! how did you make them both interchangeable?

 

[canuckian]

Canuckian, I hate you...lol

Haters gonna hate! I'll snap a pic of the rest of the one of those days when I get them all in the same place.

I like that HH with the interchangeable shafts. I'll have to modify one of mine to do that one of those days.

 

[Brownsfan]

How do you like the Cornwell set? I was going to pick one up but did not to be disappointed because I am used to the Snap-on

 

[jeffmoss26]

I am actually down to three
Sold 2 of them and trying to decide which one I want to buy next. I should have jumped on the St. Patty's Day one when they were on the web.
