    Bit inserts (primarily torx) to replace worn/bad ones, USA made preferred?

    The J61906 bit holder is like a million other ones on amazon. Olsa tools makes that kind of bit holder too. The Mayhew bit holder is just one row of bits with a magnet. I haven't really seen a single rail magnetic bit holder like this. On another note, Mayhew bits are USA made, too. I...

    Yeah it seems like Anex or Vessel since they do the ball grip, but it's the bit holder that throws me off. I haven't seen anything like that in any of their offerings.

    Extra long precision picks?

    ^^That's a good idea with a 12" hex extension. If OP is stateside, the only place I've seen those for sale is through Autobahn Dan. He has a regular set and an extra long set: https://abdtoolsandsupply.com/products/deen-pick-tool-set-replacement-type-dnpkt95set...

    The bit holder is really cool, it holds both styles of US and Japanese power bits, as well, as straight 1/4" shaft. Do Vessel or Anex have any offerings with that kind of bit holder?

    Favorite Screwdriver Bit Set?

    Amazon has the exact set for $39: https://www.amazon.com/Saker-Magnetic-Screwdriver-Furniture-Electronic/dp/B0DK8L5W5J?tag=atomicindus08-20 But, if you just want the T-handle, Walmart has a less complete bit set with the T-handle for $9 bucks. Not sure if they are the same thing, but they sure...

    What bit ratchet has the smallest head?

    Lmao. I saw he was also talking about head width and diameter needing to be under 15mm. So guess he needs both.

    What bit ratchet has the smallest head?

    I thought he needed the smallest height, and those exposed gear sets come with stubby bits, so that's why I recommended them. Turns out he needs the tiniest head diameter or width.

    What bit ratchet has the smallest head?

    Edit: just read OP's post in full, if you need tiniest head width, not necessarily height from ratchet to bit tip, then check out the Anex stubby drivers I posted below. Not ratcheting, but prolly the tiniest head width. I was under the impression you needed the smallest height, not width of...

    What kind of solder flux person are you?

    ^^Brings back a lot of childhood memories. Had a roll of that 60/40 Rosin Core as a kid that I used on my RC cars. Before Radio Shack closed, I bought some extra tip tinner and really thin solder for trying to replace a USB connector back then. I use Kester 44 63/37 solder now. I have MG...

    The Klein Tool addiction thread! :)

    Interesting. Would you happen to have the Keiba part number for these? I can't find any cross-cut type pliers like these on the Keiba website. Thx.

    Free Orange Thread Locker

    I just took the quiz and scored an 88%, but same deal. They never asked me where to send a free bottle. I guess the promotion is over.

    The Klein Tool addiction thread! :)

    Was about to ask the same thing. They look like Marvel MVA-200N, which are made in Japan. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OJVZQSM/?tag=atomicindus08-20

    Screwdrivers - interchangeable blades vs. long hex bits

    ^^Great comparison. Does anyone know if the Hazet 811BH plays nice with E6 power bits? I know the bitholder on the older 810BH does not play nice with E6. It is only good for small C6 insert bits or Japanese style power bits with longer shaft before the detent. Pic below is the older style...

    Screwdrivers - interchangeable blades vs. long hex bits

    Yeah the ESD has weird proportions. It's like too thin for really good torque, but still long. If you look at that pic I posted the 816RA is just thicker too. Like especially where your thumb would go right before the ratchet mechanism. It just feels nice. The 816R feels a little cramped.

    Screwdrivers - interchangeable blades vs. long hex bits

    Yeah I was kinda thinking the wobble was from the inside. I haven't played around with them in a while though. It's such a shame, such a cool design, but they never figured out how to minimize the bit wobble. The older 815/4/1 type bit holder is substantially better than rapidaptor, but still...
