ryobi Flex Staft Extension

[shoturtle]

I was at home depot today picking up a feel things. And I wondered into the drill section. And I notice this extension. I figure I will give it a try for tight to reach places with my drills. And so far playing around with it on the bikes, it seem to work well. Anyone else have tried it?

Stripped one first day I used it. I wouldn't recommend any in this style. I would only use it to spin things off once they're loose.

Thanks for the info. It seems to work well for drill bits at strange angles also.

Only useful for low torque applications. I've had both the Craftsman and the Ryobi versions; the Craftsman fell apart right away, but the Ryobi keeps working.

Thanks, I do not plan on using this on an impact tool or on high torque work. Just get the bolt seated for a real ratchet to come in to torque it down, and drill the holes in the odd places. I will be happy with it.
