WAVE SMALL SCREW DRIVER - CABLE TIES

The small screw driver is perfect for unlocking cable ties! It slips perfectly under the locking tab for whenever you don't want to cut it off.  :)

hmm, I always struggle using the blade tip. Thanks  :tu:
I have only once (and that was this week) used the small driver for its intended purpose, it usually ends up getting used as a generic small pokey thing.

I have done that before but never with the blade on a multi screwdriver.  Usually I use a precision screwdriver found in electronics kits.  I have a few cheap ones.  Usually if I have a multi I just cut the bloody thing.  :P

All well and good if you can get enough clearance to get the pliers in or not chop whatever is being held up apart.

I was recently thinking about this. I use tons of zip ties and this will help prevent me from having to get more. Thanks for the advice :tu:

Same here. :salute: Generic small pokey things are needed far more often than tiny screwdrivers in my world.
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools
