    Bosch Cobalt Bits Are Made In...

    I recently bought the latest li-ion 14.4V drill (made in Switzerland) and got some free bits that say they're made in the US (It's pressed into them). They look ok, but I prefer my wera bits.

    Best precision screwdrivers?

    I've got a couple of wiha's, they're well built and nicely finished. I am however under the strong impression that wera ones are more comfortable to use. I think that I might buy a set of wera's in the long run (I only have two wiha's that I had to buy to disassemble my laptop)

    I only have my blue point ratchet spanners to compare it to. They feel strong and light. The head is thinner but I think they will most likely last forever. The chrome isn't polished but then again they're for work not to hang on the wall ;). As far as grip goes it might be a bit less...

    Survey with Prize - What Interior Socket Color?

    I votes doesn't matter. I think that silver might give it a better overall look but the champagne might make it easier to spot metal particles etc etc and make it easier to clean. But then again, silver would make it easier to clean dirt :p

    Metal Capped Screwdrivers

    Wera has a special chisel screwdriver line http://www.wera.de/en/produktliste_screwdrivers_kraftform_plus_900_serie_wera_the_chiseldriver.html I've got the lasertip series (300), so I can't comment on their chiseling capacities but I think the grip and quality is great.
