That sounds like a nice combo.. Mike, how could the OHT give you more utility? The Skeletool has pliers, so you could hold a nut and drive in screws with the Spirit.. I'd say the Skeletool gives more utility..
Well, maybe if the Spirit's drivers weren't so rounded and slippery he wouldn't need to carry another tool..
It's possible... With no word of a lie, you don't think the Spirit's driver is slippery?

Yeah but the pliers on a Skeletool are pretty naff if you ask me, so why bother carrying a tool with them At least with the OHT you get a nice long saw and a selection of drivers, not a stupid pointless bit driver that can't screw anything anyway because it's either too wide or too short to be useful

Any attempt to use a Vic driver that involves any serious amount of pressure, is quite likely to hurt!I also can't see why the Skeletool's pliers are naff? I find them perfectly strong and functional, and I actually own one and use it occasionally!
Are those shelves still up?
The Spirit is also on the list to get sometime or another
Anyone know if the Vic ratchet head will work with NOS bit sets? I haven't tried them yet, but my understanding is they're non-standard size.
