Eric at Hand Tool Rescue offers these amazing giant screwdrivers and I got one! I had it for a year before I decided what to do with it. I wanted to make it over the top so I electroplated it with brass and I CNC cut some very expensive handles for it out of Bacote wood from my friends at Windsor Plywood Sherwood Park. Once I was done the video felt a little light and the Screwdriver kept rolling around so I designed a holder for it in Fusion 360 and cut it out of a piece of walnut.
Thanks for watching, I love you.
