Thanks to Screwpop for sponsoring the contest this week. They will be providing 8 of their cool Screwpop Tools to some lucky winners (2 winners will each get 4 tools). They sent me a few to try out and they work quite well, it isn’t going to replace my conventional screw drivers but it does a good job when all you need to do is tighten a screw a bit. The bottle opener works nicely also, with it around I have gone back to popping the tops of cold beverages instead of screwing off the tops. They need to make a Canadian version though, I could use a Robertson #2 bit more than the Phillips #2, but that’s just a Canadian thing…
Thanks to Steve who sent in the item to guess this week, both of us don’t have a clue what it is so you will need to back up your answer. If there are no correct guesses around mid week I will remove the obscuration marks over the part numbers to hopefully make it a bit easier.
