Yeah, I'm also amazed at people using pneumatic air drills to take wheel bolts off, does nobody use a wheel brace any more?

What pipes ?
But when those with facebook accounts can see it fine, it clearly is facebook.
I don't. I can't see the point of using a manual screwdriver.

I'm amazed at people using a wheel brace. What's wrong with a red hot poker pushed into the wood?

I still have my trusty Yankee spiral ratchet driver which I tend to use with 1/4" hex bits rather than the originals. Also a 1/4" square speed drive that will take the 1/4" hex bits, for extra torque/pressure on jobs that require it, and a 1/2" square speed drive that fits the chuck from my manual impact driver for larger stuff. Every so often I consider buying a power driver, but then I remind myself how little use I would get from it and don't bother.
How do you open a tin of paint? Is there a power tool for that?
surely that's what a chisel is for?
Of course. Pneumatic chisel Angle grinder.
Angle grinder.
Use one of those and the job is done properly without having to waste time making a video of how to f*ck it up.
In the case of the recalled Bostic Solar reflective paint, just put it out on the new patio, in the sun :-)
My go to is a proper manual screwdriver of a type to suit the screw. You get much better control with one. With lots of screws of the same type to screw in or out, it is then worth using an electric one.
That's just you that is! I always use a electric screwdriver. After years of practice I have just as good control as with a manual one.

That's not how it works
