I use hand tools, including screwdrivers, daily in my job. So they are good ones that grab the screw and feel comfortable. My tools are made by commonly recognized names. Anyone that uses hand tools frequently should know why dollar store tools are a poor choice. I'd take it as a bad sign, too.
- new299 5y agoYep, they weren’t directly assembling prototypes but still… probably using on a daily basis. It’s interesting though. Watching this video you see the CNC mill and think wow that was probably expensive and likely didn’t get a lot of use, but would have been fun (which they confirmed). But the relatively inexpensive drawer of screws really was something you look at and say: a) oh wow, I want and would use that. b) this person really had a use for this, thought and cared about what they were doing. All these little things, and the stories they tell are fascinating to me.
- soneil 5y agoI see this a lot when it's things you can compare on paper. The difference between a $200 lathe from banggood and an actual machine-shop lathe is pretty obvious even if you've never used one. But the difference between a dollar store screwdriver and my weras .. you can't really compare them on paper, you actually have to use it. And that's when it gets interesting to see what choices they made.
