Greatest Tools #6: Enormous Standard Screwdriver

Screwdriver

The gigantic standard screwdriver is number 6 on my “Greatest Tools of All Time List.” But, it needs to be a Craftsman so that you can take advantage of that wonderful “no questions asked” tool replacement guarantee.

Here are a few of the greatest uses.

  • Prying
  • Chiseling
  • Lifting
  • Splitting
  • Mutilating
  • Jamming through a stubborn oil filter
  • Throwing to stick in the ground.
  • Holding your dog leash pegged to the ground
  • Cross jumping a starter
  • Propping up your hood (but you need to put it near the spring)

What are your best uses?

    I can’t help but laugh that you say the standard screwdriver is one of the greatest tools and you have a picture of a phillips head screwdriver instead.

    This tool list is so funny because it’s true. I’m getting a huge kick out of it.

    It is completely opposite the elagant solutions presented on “home improvement” shows.

    I had a hunch I wasn’t the only dude vice-gripping, duct-taping, and screw-driver-stabbing my world together.
