Better value than the Gizzie (13.09.2012)

If you have the drills and taps you can make this for yourself. It works and is not as pricy as the screw holder gizzie. Better feel in the hand than the gizzie but it is thicker than the gizzie. I don't regret adding this to my tools.

What a GREAT idea !!! (06.06.2013)

It is one of those things that I did not know existed. I now wonder how I ever got along without it. I salute you !!!

loose sloppy threads (24.11.2014)

I bought this to cut down some 6-48 screws to fit in a Winchester 1300 shotgun receiver so they would stop just short of projecting into the receiver. I used brand new Brownells 6-48 Torx head screws.

The screws are a VERY loose fit in the threads - poor thread engagement - so despite the tool being at least 1/8" thick and there being several threads there, the screws are not held securely in the tool. The only way I could figure out to hold the screw steady while cutting it down was to "pinch" it from the head end of the screw and pull it back against the poorly-tapped threads to force a modicum of "thread engagement", keep the screw relatively square/plumb for the cut operation, and to keep some tension on the screw so it wouldn't wobble and spin around while I was cutting it with a dremel. Which means my thumb and forefinger got hot several times.

VERY dissatisfied with this product. I have already marked up the tool cutting the first screw with it, but I will be contacting Brownells about a refund. Of course, it will cost me about the same I paid for it to ship it back. Funny how that works... I "get" that Brownells has to make a profit to stay in business, but I expected the threads to be tapped a lot better for a tool specifially made to cut screws with. I also have no realistic expectation that these poorly tapped threads are going to do any significant amount of "chasing" the threads of the cut screw once I remove it from the tool.

Next time I will just make my own. I did a LOT better job of tapping the threads on my shotgun receiver and that was the first time I have EVER drilled and tapped threads on a gun part. There is almost zero screw wobble on my tapped threads.

Shame on you, Brownells.
