Electronic screw driver / Allen Key

kma on 10/04/2016 - 11:53

Hi
We are moving house and there is a lot of furniture to pack / unpack. Also both some new items including dining and coffee tables hence significant use of screw drivers and Allen keys is required.
I don't have any nice sets, only he ones that come with furniture. Nor do I have any good screw drivers, only the cheapest ones.
Can some one please recommend decent electric rechargeable ones.I don't want to spend heaps as I'm jot a professional but would like to keep it for rare situations like this.

Thank you!

    For screwdrivers IMO buy a Stanley set. They usually have a lifetime warranty so it's something you can have in your garage for at the very least the next 20 years. The set I bought from bunnings was http://www.bunnings.com.au/stanley-20-piece-screwdriver-set_p6061822 one. It has been excellent.

    For electronic screwdrivers/drills… What are you going to be doing? Ozito is a reasonably cheap brand although I'd recommend pushing to a Bosh again because it'll simply last longer. Depends what you are using them for. You might need a small one for putting together furniture.

      Only application that I can ever think of is furniture assembly disassembly

    The electric screwdriver/drills from Ikea are cheap as chips and for furniture assembly they get the job done.

    If you're going to be screwing into wood that doesn't have pilot holes / predrilled holes you're going to need to get a better quality screw driver bit than the defaults that come with cheap electric drills, they'll strip if they get a tiny bit of pressure against them. Cheap drill, decent screw driver bit, you're good to go!

    I've been using the Stanley Fat Max Ratchet screw driver and it's really made assembling things so much easier. A handy all in one tool
