Are Tips
On Using a
Screwdriver

Here are a few. dos and
don'ts" to keep in mind when
using a screwdriver:
DO remember that there is no
such thing as an all-purpose
screwdriver, since one with a tip
larger than the screw slot will
damage the surface Of the stock,
while one with tip smaller than
the screw slot will damage the
screw and the screwdriver.
DO, except when cramped
quarters prevent it. use the long
est available screwdriver with a
blade tip that fits the screw. as
this will make the turning easier.
DO hold the handle in the
right hand (if you are right
handed) and guide the blade tip
with the left hand until the screw
has been we'll started.
DO bear in mind that screw
is frightened by turning it clock
wise. loosened by turning it
counter clockwise.
DON'T try to drive a screw un-
til you have first made a starting
hole with q brad awl. plus a pilot
