You guys planning on creating a bundle for all the bits with a nice container to hold them all?

Love what you did here. Now we need a thin profile 6-inch shaft. Maybe for 1/8th bits. Very useful to have the reach when installing CPU coolers.

Should have made it where you push the back in slightly and its lightly spring assisted and slides open.

Only Linus can make a video about a screwdriver so enjoyable. I'm getting one sooner though. It looks very well made and complete.

nah, don't worry… thousands of an inch is a perfectly sensible way to measure things 😛

I general though Canada seems to have a really weird mix of units.

I do appreciate a well made screwdriver

wwwwaaaaassssttttteeeeeee

…but you can buy a very good electric for £20 lol

Prior to about 1980 the standard way to pickle and passivate stainless steel (and similar alloys) was to use a nitric acid / hydrofluoric acid bath to etch away any soft alloy, and to follow that with a nitric acid bath wash to oxidize the surface. Along about 1980 I invented the now standard process that replaced this. It produces a generally better spinel coating, and is non-toxic and nowhere near the hazard of the nitric and hydrofluoric acids.

The process involves a couple of steps, which can be combined and can be varied as needed.

The first step is to strip any organics that may be blinding the surface. This can be accomplished using any mild detergent or phosphate. Easiest is common detergents used for dish washing or related. These are typically nonylphenyl nonylpolyethoxy compounds. Essentially one end is a branched chain hydrocarbon about 9 carbons long that dissolves oil like substances. This is bond to a benzene ring that dissolves aromatic substances. The last part is a roughly nine segment long chain of ethoxy groups ending in an alcohol that easily dissolves into water. The lengths of the chains varies the sudsing and other characteristics. Other modifications can change the ionic character. Find the one that best dissolves whatever contaminants you have.

Wash the components in a solution of chelant and soap. Add a small percentage (say 0.5%) of soap to a solution of 1-10% citric acid (best) or some other chelating agent (acetic acid, EDTA, NTA, …). Ideally use high or at least higher purity water (low calcium, magnesium and salt content water – I preferred deionized, or distilled water, or water from reverse osmosis) at a slightly elevated temperature (140 F is ideal). This solution dissolves soft iron at 11 inches per year, while limiting dissolving of stainless steel to about 100 microns per year. In just a few seconds any soft iron or iron oxide is stripped away. On large surfaces this is plainly obvious and whole areas or welds will briefly turn orange, then clear. That's it.

Lastly, rinse this solution off with high purity water and then allow the surface to air dry. This results in the rapid formation of a tightly adherent passive chromium oxide (Cr2O3) corundum coating.

You could go further and intentionally nitride the surface. That isn't really needed. The important aspect is the dissolving of the soft alloys to allow the formation of the tightly adherent oxide surface.

One caution, keep the citric acid content low. Though it is a very safe compound, it will dissolve aluminum and concrete rapidly. You want a lot of dilution and things like calcium or magnesium ions to combine with the citrate before it goes down he drain so that it doesn't eat your drain lines. Also be careful about the heavy metals levels (chromium in particular). That shouldn't be a problem, but might in some cases be regulated or limited. If you have cobalt in any of the alloys, be especially careful as that can cause serious problems in sewage systems.

Tesla can make a car every 16 seconds. How long to make 1 screwdriver.

this isnt about a hand tool, but your videos are top hat or for machines no one can make, your drifting off mainstream viewers. I am suggesting this to other linux how video makers
Thelead buried the lead several times or ignoreproblems brought up. I have set up machines for all the Os/s including OS/2 to rehat, Windows whatever. I find linux vids here general are ok to poor.

For instance, its mentioned that Nvidia wont work? on most of the big 3 you like, but never suggest a link how to fix, no apt get for nvidia, etc etc etc.
I had seen many videos on how to run windows or set up wine on linux, but then never getting into HOW. MOST attempts are a disaster.
I bought a lenovo I5 2022 on black friday, and even after hours of removing bloat, spies, etc, the next windows 11 update set everything back. Tell us how to STOP that.
On some videos, they say POP3 or arch are windows DIRECTx) READY, which POP3 and elementry was the worst, more freezes than Windows.
I play STO and SL mainly, you never mention if you install Steam on Linux will plays these, I could run them in a VM, why spend hours futzing with all this crap.
Why dont you youtubers make a video or script where to find fixes or drivers, Nvida should not be hiding these drivers. Wine is a joke on some of these distros.
YOU tout Linux to get away from Windows, buy 11 gets worse everyday and one day 10 will be gone for good. STO wont let players using 7 on anymore.
I used to compile programs and I guess I could to that in java of C++, but retired, and am tired.

the command line doesnt scare me. But no one boils to a true and total Win Migration Video, installing just linux is getting boring.
please make one that helps us. I have no doubt I made a lot of mistakes, Wine, Vulcan, proton, are footnotes in this topic. I dont do much
office computing at all. thanks, Mike

I cannot comprehend how this much time and money and effort, has been spent on a screwdriver when a quick look at the Wera catalogue would have sorted it… 😂

That said, I am ordering and cannot wait for mine, as I respect the dedication and OCD. You maniacs.

That was a BALLER episode of How Its Made
