    Moderately priced screwdriver set opinions?

    I have a set of Wera I love and recently I have been working on rebuilding a large 42" Wolf BBQ. I needed some longer shafts and picked up a set of ICON at HF and they are really great. Zero Complaints. Fit and Bite are great and they have taken out some badly charred and greasy hardware.

    Which Electric Pressure Washer?

    We all have to learn. Buy cheap get cheap. I too started with a karcher Home Depot aluminum pump pressure washer. Lasted 3 uses. Returned it and it died again.
