Get German or Swiss made precision drivers, and a Vessel set for JIS. Tiny screws are easy to strip out and a huge pain to remove once stripped. A removable bit set is a good option if you can't get an individual driver... but individual drivers are generally your best choice.

Hi Doug/Doc? Just FYI: changing the button on the phone will result in non-working phones. The security chips inside the button make sure that each button/iPhone pair are un-separable. Kind regards

Snap on,Wera and Whia are made at the same manufacturing plant in Shusang province in China,Wera and Whia also have manufacturing facilities in Taiwan and Germany but the bulk of production is China based,fun fact

Glad to see ifixit has an alumnium precision screwdriver. I had to replace a hard drive in my iMac and I bought a hard drive swap kit that included the holder and 3 bits or so. I was not impressed with the plastic one. I’ll definitely look into that full kit with the aluminum handle though.

You need to try the Wiha drivers. There is a reason they are industry standard pretty much everywhere. I've never seen anyone buy a Snap On precision driver for electronics out in the wild.

I have Wiha, Wera, Klein, Gedore, Felo, Snap On and PB Swiss. They are all nice, but the PB Swiss with the Swiss grip are my favorites.

Wera makes some amazing precision tools. I highly suggest taking a look at them!

Wiha makes T1 micro bits and PB swiss makes 1/4 inch T1 bits

Just got the torx set of the snap on precision electronic ones in the foam, havnt tried yet. I'll probably use them to take apart my pocket knives and stuff, those little t6 and t8 fasteners are easy to destroy lol along with the driver itself

Good video Doc, I'd have guessed you would have had the Wera Kraftform precision driver set. They make a big set of like 6 styles (torx, flat, hex, Phillips, ball hex, etc) in about a 30pc fold up wrap set. Haven't used them but they do look decent & Ive got them on my list.

I like that you get down to the nitty gritty of tools. Detailed information

@fabiohaddad2531

Excellent review, many new info to me. To my experience the handle is critical in those tools, some has terrible grip. I have Wiha and Wera from Germany, l preffer Wiha handles.

Tbh the JIS driver is vastly superior to the PH one, even for PH screws. They sit slightly deeper into the screw head so they dont cam out anywhere near as often as PH drivers do. JIS drivers and bits are pretty sought after because of this, even more so with rumors that Japan is phasing them out to fit the international market more.

You should become an ergonomics engineer. Worked at a biotechnology research department as a student ( I was a pleb nothing fancy) Fascinating field of study with every industry conceivable. From tool companies, to medical and even the military spends a lot of money in R&D. Anything from prosthetics to weapon design for accuracy. The greater the comfort, the greater the accuracy with less fatigue, increasing productivity. They even equated cancer through mathematics to insure different specialists communicate the same diagnosis and everyone is in the same page. ( Trying to avoid a cenario with 5 different specialist having 5 different diagnosis) Really cool.
