"...hates power drivers"

[Carl Meyer]

I agree Joe, I just can't seem to resist pulling your chain.  

I have at least 5 cordless drivers plus the ones at the ends of my arms.  What am I doing wrong when I so often have the flat ones slip off?  I'm afraid to use them near polyester.

I have in the past tended to use Phillips drivers that were a size too small.  That tends to damage the screws.  You look at a screw and think-It'll take a no 2 when a no 3 would be better.

Please let me know which bits and drivers would work the best.   Thanks.
