Malco Connext nut driver tool tip with bonus tip

[milky2k]

I've always debated getting a nut driver set but I seldom have need for one. I made do with a 1/4 spinner handle but I never liked that the socket could get knocked off and fall in to an engine bay. I'm aware of the MAC and Stahlwille locking spinner handle but I don't like their handle shapes and the MAC is pricey for me. I found this Malco Connext handle at a flea market and added a Titan locking socket adapter. Now the sockets lock in to place and I don't have to worry about knocking them loose.

If you don't want to spend on a Malco handle, you can make your own locking nut driver handle:

Bonus tip-
If you need to carry around a few 6" reciprocating saw blades but don't want a case that takes up a bunch of space, you can use a toothbrush case from Walmart. They come in different colors so you color code your blades too.

Nice setup there with the Malco handle and Titan locking adaptor!
The Malco stubby version is nice too.
The one he made in the video you posted turned out pretty good.
One of my all-time favorites is the original Klein Switch-Drive handle. They are about impossible to find now, but of all the versions they have made since, IMO it is still the best one. It's a shame they discontinued it so early on.
I like the Hazet 810BH too.

Hey Thanks! @KnurledNut
Good to know about the Klein Switch Drive. I really like the Malco now that I've tried it so I'll be on the look out for the stubby Malco and the Klein to try it out. I saw the Hazet 810BH and I hear good things about it. However, I might end up making all the bit holders I could ever need all by myself. I went to the flea market and found this cool looking red Crewline screwdriver for $1 and I picked up this Bauer bit holder for $4 and put them together just like in the video. The Bauer bit holder has more play than the Malco since the bits don't sit as deep in there. Not a major issue, just be aware. I may make some more, even a stubby one, if I find some good bit holders and decent handles. I'm not going to toss the screwdriver blade, who knows when it might come in handy.
