You can actually use the Makita bit holder magnet the same way. Just flip it around with the flat end toward the screw. Then slide it up to interface with the rim of the screw head. That's the way I usually use it. It works much better than with the bullet end out. I have always suspected that an engineer designed it and a marketer decided how to photograph it.

I've used this tool before and the only reason I stopped using it was because when I needed to seat the screw head flush with the surface I was screwing it into, I could not see when it was flush because the magnet attachment covered my line of sight to the screw head completely at the point when I needed to know when to stop. Other than that it was nice, but do you see my point? If you are not doing detail work than yes it is a god send.

I thought the sleeve was to quickly pop off magnetic nut drivers and sockets. I’ve tried using it to hold the screw onto my bit but it never works as well for that purpose as my brain imagines. The magnet holds it flush to the bit while the sleeve lets it kind of just loosely sit in there. The sleeve is still very useful for catching the screws if they come completely off the bit.

Another tip about maintaining a fence. I went to the Auto Zone and bought a magnetic tray. That thing attached to my metal wheelbarrow and I just throw nails and screws toward it and they just go into the tray like a baseball going into a catcher's mitt. That is fricking awesome. When I am done maintaining my fence I wheel all of my screws, drills and other paraphernalia to the shed and scoop out all of the bad nails and screws and throw them away without having to pick them up one at a time. Sorry for so many comments. Hope this helps for all you guys that like to screw around.

i tested them all out and the best is to me ryobi. the way its designed is that it does not move and if you adjust it to just float above the magnet you can drill with out worry of damaging it. the other magnet tip actually make contact with the screw and that is how it gets damaged. a friend of mine use to put painters tap on the tips and remove them after the job. that is also will protect the magnet for longer use.

Thanks for this product review. For years there seamed to me nothing like the things I used back in the 1980's that could be used with a slot screw. It was pretty impossible to use a power tool on them back then, and even worse if you did not drill out a pilot hold first. This item from DeWalt would also work and even better. The tool back then was a longer screw driver bit then normal, very similar to the ones in this video, but it had a the metal tub around it with a light spring. It was not magnetic, but it surrounded the top of the slotted screw head keeping your power drill centered on the screw and as you got close to the material the spring would allow it to slid up allowing you to finish the screw in the material.

I'm a Dewalt fan and use their cordless line to make a living but the Dewalt bit magnet is not the best. It is decent but I use a lot of T40 lag screws for work and the magnets on the Dewalts, as others have said, will crack and break on you with any kind of impact use. If your not using an impact then they might last a good while. But in all honesty why buy the dewalt when TRZ actual shows you the best bit magnet on the market in this vid and has done a review on it as well. Yep it's the Makita Mag Boost. Hands down the Best bit magnet you can buy that I've found and I've tried just about every one. Stay away from the Irwins and Masterforce because they simply can come off your bit with the screw and their magnets are also prone to breaking when used with an impact. There ok if you get them in a pack with bits as the magnet is decently strong but I wouldnt waste money on buying them on their own. The Makita Mag Boost is the best, and only one you should your money on imo!

It looks like an amazing simple tool that I would probably use myself. However, with that said, as a Canadian, we have Robertson screws and the most commonly used Robertson bit used is the #2. The reason Robertson screws and bits are so amazing is because they stay on the bit because both the screw head and the bit are tapered squares so the produce what's called an interference fit, similar to how NPT pipe thread works, which allows the screw to hold onto the bit. Alif you want the learn about the Robertson screw, The History Guy actually makes a video all about it

There seems to be a teensy discrepancy in the dimensions of Robertson screws vs drivers. Some work together perfectly and never slip, some screw and bit combos work poorly and slip all the time. US manufactured bits particularly seem to perform poorly with Canadian made deck screws. Just based on my own experience, when i find a bit that slips, i just stay away from that manufacturer and try another. Anyone else noticed this? Some work, some slip?

There are also other magnetic screw holder (DeWalt) and other that use sliding sleeve so long screws won’t flip out sideways. What any magnetic holder doesn’t to is holding stainless steel screws when your job call for it.

@@SoleEpiphany Philips isn't just US, it's U/S! Ok that's not fair, they have a specific purpose. Henry Philips developed it (didn't invent it as I said in error before) to make the driver cam out of the screw head to protect the material, and if you use it with that in mind then everything is fine, but almost always you *don't* want your driver to cam out and round the head. Pozi was invented to give that control but for some reason unknown to the rest of the world, the USA has never heard of them and won't touch them with a barge pole! Makes everything so much damned harder for the rest of us engineering folks every time we buy a product from the far east who's biggest market is the USA and therefore use Philips in everything :-( (I don't know why Robertson hasn't caught on here in Europe, it's a good idea, but at least we have Torx for when Pozi isn't quite good enough...)

Do u find it sinks the screws in a lot further since the magnetic bit blocks your view of entry? Or does the bit itself stop the depth. I have the Makita and love it but this looks a lot stronger

Now if you were a Canadian, you would be using Robertson screws and drivers. Robertson is square and the Robertson driver grips the screw all by its self and does not fall off. Almost impossible to strip too. Invented in 1908 by P.L. Robertson, a native Canadian. ... Oh, yea, you can thank Henry Ford for no Robertson screws in the USA. Ford wanted exclusive rights to the screw design and P.L. Robertson told him to pound salt.

Yes, I'm definitely going to look at getting one!! Because I'm sick and tired of dropping screw's! It always seems to happen when you're up a ladder,or scaffolding! And loads of times your other hand is holding up a length of timber so you find yourself trying to hold up the timber with your elbow or head because you need to hold the screw!! So this little gadget is going to be a pleasure to own!! 👍

Just use a magnetizer or a strong magnet and run it along your bits and screw drivers......It's WAY easier and you don't have to worry about the bulky plastic contraption on your bit.
