And if you don't like that deal, here's the goofiest "semi-automatic" screwdriver ever, also on sale, hyped with a slick "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" ad where husband and wife (?) go around driving screws into the walls of their house:

They had a preview over at Toolguyd a little while back of the Worx driver.

That video is pretty unique.

Yep saw that this will be for light duty jobs my big gun tools will be for the major projects. I try to get both so I am not dragging my 20 volt drill in to tighten the small stuff.

Looks like a total gimmick.

IMO I would nail AND screw her though...

I have a few of the worx items so far they do the job seem to be well made and have held up I am a little ruff on tools. I am sure that everyone has there gimmick tools as this might be also just going by past expierence I will give it a try.

There should be a special label on tools made to sell to wives and children as 'clever and thoughtful' Father's Day gifts -- that will sit forever in a drawer.

Come on Jack I would agree but that leaf blower and leaf mulcher has been a great one. With 9 Maple trees in the back yard it got its workout just gonna give there screwdriver a chance if its no good shame on me.

We're not saying it will be a bad quality tool. We're just saying that a self loading screwdriver serves really no purpose for most real projects, and is more of a gimmick to get people to buy it as a gift than an a real tool.

I played with the Kobalt version, I couldn't see any use for it. It takes less time than to swap out a hex bit on my 12v tools, they are far more versatile/powerful/quicker, and that $40 would buy me a lifetime supply of replacement bits

To each his own I give up.
