Re: screwdriver bits
what ever you do get one off these for awkward places
you put a screw on it it grips like poo to a blanket
so you can cary screws to those hard to get at places easily

avoid using for normal screwing to keep the bit gritty and grippy

Re: screwdriver bits
I bought a pack of the Milwaukee ones a few months back and find them pretty good.

Re: screwdriver bits
I have used Wera quite a lot but my favorite used to be Wiha diamond.
I was once over boarding a ceiling with plasterboard using a 12v Bosch drill and Wiha diamond bits. The bits used to grip so tightly in the screws that you could let go of the drill and the bit would hold the weight of the drill until you pulled it out!

Re: screwdriver bits
The most durable and long lasting bits for putting in drywall screws are hilti. I've had a bit put in over a million screws before it's needed replacing.
Carpentry,I can explain it to you but I cannot understand it for you.
