Thorin, a couple of years ago I purchased a Craftsman cordless screw
driver that I've really found useful. I don't know any model number but
it's battery powered and can be used in a straight configeration or
snapped into a L shape. It has a built in LED light for those dark
under the layout areas. It runs fairly slowly and comes with a few
drill bits and screwdriver bits. It can be set for drilling or screwing
speeds and has torque setting also. I like to use hex head machine
screws for a lot of my work so I bought some extra sockets. We use the
same hex heads for facia for our modules so it comes in handy for that
process. I think it was in the $30 range. So far it's given me
exceptional service.
