Vessel Tools and JIS screwdrivers MUD discount code!
Got these in today from JDV Products in Fair Lawn, NJ .
(201)796-1720 .
I must say, those 980 series Megadora screwdrivers are some seriously hefty tools . The impact driver set was the biggest surprise, at $71 I thought maybe it was a bit overpriced until I picked it up - this thing is brutally heavy for it's size and even has a steel storage box ! The bit drive size is 1/2" SAE so using it with sockets should work well also. The included bit set is a heavy straight slot and #1-#4 JIS cross bit sizes . Even comes with a nice set of instructions.
Yesterday, the basic 3-piece set from McMaster-Carr came in and those aren't exactly cheapo , either .
The set from McMaster are the basic 900 series Megadora and are very well made . I did find in some initial testing that these drivers not only fit the JIS screws on both the '77 40 and my '06 Corrola perfectly but also fit standard phillips screws amazingly tight . Wish I would have had these 30yrs ago .....
Cost on this 3 piece set from McMaster was $28.92 , plus ship . Well worth the money !
On a side note, after talking to their salesman he's interested in setting us up with a coupon code for IH8MUD discounts . He's in the process of contacting the mods to set this up . I told him about this great forum and the international following , he's working on carrying a larger stock quantity since I bought the last impact set they had in stock . Shipping/customer service is absolutely top notch and they also have several other lines of quality tools , just fyi ....
UPDATE - When you place an order on JDV's site enter the coupon code IH8MUD and receive a 10% discount ! Thanks to Larry Konight at JDV !
