I'd been running a long screw of the same diameter into the block with my 3/8" VSR drill, which takes a lot of the work out of driving them by hand, either with a brace or ratchet, but it's still work. The biggest potential problem I see with the impact is breaking the heads of old screws. I started replacing old pinblock screws years ago because of that, and was driving them by hand. If we had any sense, we'd just switch to Robertson's and get it over with. Ron N
