That one time when USA made tools sucked...

In this video we look at a late '90's, early 2000's era Kobalt socket spinner handle.
This thing is junk. The square drive at the end isn't connected to the shaft.
It's just an insert pressed into the handle. There's no detents in it to
engage the ball detent on the ratchet, and to top it off it was pressed in off-center too.
