hi there what modulo screwdrivers do you use ??
i have had about 4 sets of ck ones and they just dont seem to last with the tips breaking off
i have seen some facom ones on ebay at a good price , just wandered if anyone had used these and if they are any good , or any others you can reccomend
thanks

I use knipex drivers i got them off ebay there spot on.

i can second the ck...im for ever 'treating' myself to a new set of terminals and backups, every other visit to w/s! unfortunatly, thats all they stock that are 'worth buying'. looked at the facom too in the past but never heard a verdict. ill await the outcome of this.

I bought this Wera set from screwfix:

VDE Slip Stop Screwdriver Set 7Pc - Screwfix.com, Where the Trade Buys

Brilliant Kit and well worth every penny.

Before i got the knipex drivers i had facom ones they are very good i only replaced them because they were getting a bit tired and replace missing ones.

i think im going to give the facom ones a whirl
the facom spanners and sockets ive used seem very good quality .
thanks for the replys

Try the britool set. Fantastic and not to expensive.

I've had the wera's that flip flop mentions. Didn't last 2 minutes. I thought CK were loosing their standards so tried others. Turns out most others are even worse. Not tried the facom though. Went back to CK in the end. Would be nice to see what comes of them though.

i have got a set of facom ones on their way .
will let you know what there are like when i get them
thanks

considering the bahco set can be had for less than 15 quid and are solid your silly to buy 25 quid sets even irazolas

Draper Expert for me.

Lasting very well and comfortable to use.

Facom are awesome screwdrivers, also wera but a little fluffly. Wiha are also good but i think there are as strong as others. But both of them are above the high stantards of quality screwdrivers, vde or not.
