the traffic.)
In the 80's I got a jeweler's driver set from RS which had a hole in
every handle and a pin to slip in and provide leverage. Unfortunately
I've lost or broken most of them since.
ASCII art diagrams for better explanation.
Just the driver:
head ---> p~~~~~~~~~q
\--| |--/
| |
| |
hole in handle -> |.-.|
|`-'|
| |
| |
// //
// //
| |
'. .'
| |
| |
/ /
/ /
| |
| |
tip -> '+'
Driver with the pin:
head ---> p~~~~~~~~~q
\--| |--/
| |
| | _________________
pin in the -> ===| |==E_________________|
hold in handle | |
| |
| |
// //
// //
| |
'. .'
frequent break -> | |
point | |
/ /
/ /
| |
| |
tip -> '+'
When I lost the pin, I used one of the smaller screwdrivers as a
replacement. That started me down the line of breaking the
screwdrivers.
