cheap but cheerful screwdriver set

I suppose so!

Proto, Snap on and Britool makes me think you have a bit of a mechanical background?

Yes bit of time time on Plant and Opencast mining. Seems like forever away now though.

What have you been using them for? I bought a set of Workzone drivers (I paid full price for them) and they're still going strong around 3 months later.
There is a note which comes with them saying they're only for electrical work, not mechanical.

If you will insist on abusing your screwdrivers I'd fork out the extra and go for snap-on.

I've still got a Britool tool cabinet, used to love their kit. Snap on was always too expensive for me!

Even Snap On don't like abuse now , they aren't what they were either.

Britool in their day was great gear.

Aye , priced out of the market now lol.

Proto have gone downhill too. MAC were getting a hold around here , although I dont have any the lads reckon it is good gear.

Do you have a mechanical background too?

Served my time as a car mechanic, still enjoy bits of it but was too repetitive working for a dealer

Mac had a good reputation when I worked in the garage as well

I had a spell on Auto electrics too, but as you get older getting under the dash with the head on the pedals is not fun lol.

They are a pain now anyway.
