I've been looking for one for a while and this is the first i've seen that wasn't rusted solid or missing parts. It does work great for slotted screws but all the ones I use are posidrive. I was thinking of making some kind of adapter for standard hexagonal bits

Ofcause you can make such an adaptor and it's a nice and highly useable idea  :thumbup: :thumbup: maybe I'll make one too - you often have a Little MORE control with a last Little twist with the hand.

BUT using modern electric screw machine to a strait slottes screw is NOT WORKING - but the other way around is OK !

I use my "Stanley drill" only for strait slotted screws and it's working really fine !
