[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 67777, member: 337"] I was originally going to get a "speed wrench" and then I realized a guy has to push down really hard - and that would suck without the nice big round pad on the end. The wood of a bit brace would also be warmer. And then I realized the bit brace is actually designed to hold the angled hex shape of the Eskimo converter Also - I was thinking I'd have to epoxy or tape everything together so they don't get lost if I bought a speed wrench so I looked for a bit brace and found one and tested it successfully - on wood anyway [IMG]http://www.steritool.com/images/product/10591.jpg[/IMG] [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I can't recall the size but I took the Eskimo adapter to Northern Tool and it is the standard "big" hex driver size. It is either a standard or metric (can't recall) but there IS a socket that is the same dimension as the hex on the Eskimo adapter so you could get a 1/4" socket to make any 1/4" driver deliver the anchors. At that point it seems like those extra bits/pieces would get long and gangly (and taping/epoxying it all together or some such would be a drag) [/QUOTE]
