Milwaukee Tools Multi Bit STUBBY Screwdriver Has A HIDDEN FEATURE! 

I was super close to buying Milwaukee multi screwdrivers, but went with a Picquic for my multi screwdriver for pretty much all the reasons Vince talks about. No moving parts, simple design with push through bits, and the bits themselves are impact ready. But additionally, Picquic uses standard sized bits. Break one of the Milwaukee's 1.5" bits in your impact or lose it? Gotta go buy a new set of Milwaukee 1.5" bits instead of just pulling a new one out of any of those snazzy kits Vince would have a dozen of in his truck or bag, and getting back to work. Picquic has a stubby model that uses a standard 1" bit, a medium size that uses 2" bits (my choice), and a standard size that uses 3" bits. All are impact ready and easily replaced from standard kits with corresponding length bits. They also have an even tinier stubby that uses tiny 3/16" bits for more precision work.

Every time I go to Home Depot I see that driver always wondered about it 🧐 thanks for the info I’ll probably pick one up tomorrow.

For those of you who have problems taking out the bits... just use the loose bit to pry out the bit you want from the top end (the small opening near the forward/reverse wheel)... tata no more finger problems!

For those of you that have this little gem do this - remove all the bits, spray some furniture polish on one of the bits and push it through each hole. Your fingers will thank me for this!

Have the full size version of this tool, it works great. I used it to install stainless steel covering over the conveyor in the ticket lobby at Phila International Airport and it never let me down. Only complaint I have is getting the bits out of the storage handle is a pain but they do stay put. I wouldnt change a thing.

I’ve bought a lot of tools because of your videos....

For me the best stubby is the Wera 811/1 super short and simple stubby. Has a small handle so just what you need in tight places. I’ve always got hex bits in my screw gun anyway. Great channel, I like your reviews.

Great find Vince. Next time I go to homedepot I will grab one. Thanks

Keep up the great work!

Dude thank you for this channel .

One of the main things I use mine for is loosening the screws on the inside of a recessed can light to drop it down flush with finished ceiling. Take the bit out and it works as a 1/4in nut driver. Works great

I like the more secure storage of the bits. Ive lost sooo many bits from my klein and lenox multis and as you can imagine, its infuriating when you grab it only to notice the one you need is gone. Im also quite a fan of ratcheting screwdrivers.

I like the wire strippers, that people tend to not see on these multi-purpose screwdriver. People over look this simple nice feature.

I bought a similar ratcheting screwdriver at the dollar store and I use it all of the time. It's about half the length of the Milwaukee and uses standard hex bits. The bit storage is in the head under a cap.

Never had good luck with ratcheting screwdrivers eh? Well brother you really outta try to snap on stubby ratcheting screwdriver! It’s the best out there. You can’t over torque it, never slips. Super strong. Very good mechanism, finer teeth than most ratchets! I absolutely love mine and I didn’t think I would! Bought it purely off recommendation, and I’m glad I did!!

Neat stubby screwdriver! Good job 👍

Your always finding those hidden secrets bro. Keep it going!!!

Great to see a nice knife in a tool video. Spyderco makes great knives and that S110V steel has amazing edge retention.

Nice video Vince! I ran slick stuff spray over the empty bit slots, works great now.

First thing outta my mouth was.. “That’s my Backpack!”. 22 year IBEW sparky, and as far as I’m concerned this is the only way to go. I can put just about everything I need in there. Even my M12 impact fits in there... oh, and the multi bit screwdriver too.😉

I have 2 of these one for work one for home. I was very disappointed when I lost my #2 phillips bit. So I just put a shorter phillips bit in it. It's very handy but nothing beats my 15 in 1 megapro that's a great selection of bits and they are hidden in the handle.

great video! i will be picking one up tomorrow

I like how you discover things about the tool while you record! Entertaining. Good vid.

Vince, as far as ratcheting screwdrivers go, my family has always loved the old Snap-On SSDMR4B in orange. My grandfather had one, my dad has one, my uncle has one, and I have one. It’s one of the only Snap-On products that we own and it is the most valuable in my tool box. It’s about 55 bucks on eBay but it is worth every single penny. Give one a shot, you’ll be glad you did.

I need to get one!! Looks very handy 😊

5:48 that face of realization gets me every time lmfao

My guy said “no buono” lmaooooo

Hey Vince, I've been having issues with my Milwaukee drills!! When trying to drill holes , it stops a shake a little bit. Check battery power, and even charge adjustments. It's happened with my m12 and 18volt.. can you help

i actually use it with my 2505-20 because the shave groove on the end allow the 1/4 hex to fit into the 2505's attachable chuck for putting on drills-bit much easier without have to put on the 2505 drill it self. also something just use it with the 2505's angle attachable to get that odd reach sometimes. but it works for me.

Cooi, It works great with any 1/4 inch drive tool attachments you might have lying around. There are also plenty of Milwaukee Brand 1/4 inch Accessory Kits available if you want to keep it all Milwaukee Brand. Example convert it to a full size Screwdriver by switching to a longer 1/4 inch hex Screwdriver bit or convert it to a Mini Socket Ratchet you get the idea - it's versatile.

Love mine. I bought it years ago. But if you have really big fingers, you might find it hard to remove the bits.

my stubby wont loosen anylonger, havn't used it very much honestly. any tips on fixing it?

I own this screw driver, I keep it in my handyman go toolbox. I pretty much had all the same concerns. Its not that bad, you get used to it. You have to keep in mind its a specialty screw driver you only pull it out once in awhile anyways. Bought it for the exact reason you mentioned, about loosing stubby drivers in the bottom of your toolbox. lol

Great video👍

As much as I really like Milwaukee, my favorite stubby driver is Klein.

If you don’t like the ratchet function you can lock it to where it’s fixed both ways

That’s cool. I would get rid of the squares and put in a #3 and a T10. That would take care of a lot of mine

Great video vince

I was going to buy it yesterday but thanks for showing that the unit doesn’t close.

I love this but really use the bigger one more but I like the bit size better than the long bits on the larger. I love the no rust part as a plumber I lose many to that

I bought this few months ago to help adjust depth on drywall screws instead of removing my cone of the screw gun and working around outlets. Great quality item but holy smokes does it impale the fingers trying to move bits.

I wanted since first time i saw it cause i hate having one screwdriver for each bit and i already had a mexican trupper stubby ratchet screwdriver but an accident happened to it.I loved the concept since it is not bulky, you have several bits at hand and have a good grip. So when i saw the milwaukee a couple of years ago, i wanted it, made it mine and loved it; there would be better (here in Mexico there are not many options) but it is the manual screwdriver i use the most. I already knew about using the bits with my impact, the only problem is that it is not magnetic and bits fall off, anyway, loved it.

Nice screwdriver 👍

I will say this, quite frankly, its a beast! love the vids

This guy is smart and very good communicator.

This is my first time watching your videos. Do I watch more after your stumble and confusion how to get the bits out lol. I’m sure I will but damn, it’s so easy to figure it out at first glance.

Reasons I don't use ratcheting screwdrivers: 1) I carry a 12v driver for things like outlet covers. 2) I carry a 20v driver for anything the 12v doesn't have enough ass for. 3) Klein multi bit power driver. It uses regular 1/4" hex bits and the double sided bits from there 11in1. (I'm really glad I got one before they quit making them.)

What is the value if you can not easily exchange bits? I don’t see me buying a tool that seems so difficult to work

I had both the stubby and regular length Milwaukee's. They both broke within a year. No luck with a warranty so I chucked them both and bought a snap on ratcheting screwdriver with a soft grip. Way nicer and haven't broken it yet. Even if I do it's lifetime warranty.

Husky’s ratcheting screwdriver is awesome

VCG goes beast mode once again! I'm a simple man..... I see a post from @VCG Construction.... AND I CLICK! Then I smash the like button so hard, I put additional cracks in this glass screen saver. Awesome job, awesome tool! Love both of these companies! #VCG4LIFE

Vin you're so right on this. Not only are you right but you're dead on. To a T at everything you said. I as well have no patience for a ratcheting screwdriver and I have a stubby set and normally when I'm looking for the Phillips I find the slotted and when I'm looking for the slotted I find the Phillips and it gets lost in the bag and end up just having to either buy another one because I'm too impatient or I got to dig everything out and then reorganized it's really annoying. My only beef about the stubby is it size but I guess you could always pop in the Dewalt or Milwaukee extended Phillips for extended slotted Etc in there if need be. Excellent video as always

This is a nice screwdriver. But the snapon ones are much nicer. Very expensive of course but they feel and operate much smoother.

I got the new kobalt double drive ratchet screw driver it’s got L and R on top. The only thing I don’t like about ratcheting screw drivers is you have to keep turning until it grabs. Other then that I’m a big fan of them

I have that screwdriver and his big brother awesome Vince

I definitely prefer Picquic screwdrivers over the Milwaukee imitations

Dude you can set the handle up with the stuff you're using that day. I use mine with small sockets mostly so I hardly use what's in the handle.

Liked the vid Vince, & have these screwdrivers. If have the ratcheting version, you gotta use thumb to press down to get bits out. The non-ratcheting does have the pass through bits, where you can push bits through; & this is also a tad bit smaller than ratcheting version. The nice thing about these, can buy the extra bits & use on this(so if don’t like bits came w/, or need different sizes, can create any loadout you like)....along w/ any other 1/4” hex bit👍🏻 Must say though, the Milwaukee ratcheting drivers are better than a Klein ratcheting b/c of the Milwaukee’s selector switch...the Klein’s just more annoying to use (if ya have both of these....you know what I mean😉😆). All in all, I really do like the Milwaukee multi bit screwdrivers b/c they come in handy & allow me to use any 1/4” hex bit, which I really like. Thanks for sharing✌🏼

Great tool 👍🏽

Are these bits strong enough to work in impact drills?

Would like to have the link and awesome job on all tools review

Only problem I have is there's no slot for a caribeiner...in case I'm in a pinch or sets of security bits in the same style.....of rust resistance marine grade....nor an onboard rechargeable led lite. Or signaling lite...if dropped. Or an obvious break up colour stripe for quick search. Or a kit set zip bag. Other than that ....pretty decent. I'd use the heck out of it... If they can figure out how to put it on my fast back id buy 3. With an 8 in 1 prep tool companion.

A stubby with a hidden feature? Great video.....

@vcg go to hobby lobby or any crafts store (wal-mart may carry it) ask for a stick of "zipper ez" or standard bee's wax rub it on any zipper that is sticking or breaking open and its like magic (i was a parachute rigger in the Marine Corps for a long time and it is the only thing i ever trusted on my packs)

It'll fit inside a large plastic presciption pill container...the ones you get at the pharmacy. And leaves you room for other bits. The bits are marine grade... Except minus Popular Security or Allen heads...to go with it. Like a 6/8/10... It does match my Swiss Army Knife Fieldmaster/Hunter. I have to switch back and forth because of the phillips. So I can put this inside the modified container...construct a neck cord or key chain attachment to compliment my army knife and fast back and 6 inch Milwaukee caribeiner ready vice grips with demolition blade...

They should sell these in kit options. Stubby with... Common bits... Security bits... Allen bits... Mini socket bits / Metric. Marine grade ...impact ready. Which is what these state they are. Even a caribeiner kit ... I'd buy one for each kit.

Great videos! 👍🏾

The first one I seen like this was Craftsman though bits were reguarding steel. The Milwaukee bits are better material. I am not sure about the size of the Craftsman if it was smaller or not. I know a lot of brands of came out since then. I also left my Craftsman in the locked position.

I might be able to fasten a loop to this for a caribeiner....or wrist or neck cord....If dropped or lost. If it came with a knife bit...even exacto and a light or sparker bit. That would be the bomb. You could sharpen one of the slotted drivers to be a cutting blade. Or even a removable accessory that doubles as a lever for more torque? To help u get on it. If need be. Push with one, ratchet with the other.

Hey Vince It's Dom. I'm a night shift commercial plumber in Arizona. Was wondering about the link for the knife you used to open the stubby rather mini screw driver.... thanks love and respect all the videos you do

Guess I have a faulty one , the longer of the same thing has a magnet to hold it in

Mainly because of your videos I switched over to Milwaukee from originally going with Ryobi.

That knife click tho

Ever try a Snap-on 10.5" T-handle ratcheting screwdriver? Specialty tool, but very nice!

Saludos desde 🇲🇽

3:12 Calorado USA Earth 😂 😂😂

Nice screwdriver

How do you keep the bits from falling out of the use position, point the screwdriver at the ground and the bit falls out

Do you got the link for the knife?

Great Video... I’ve noticed the quality of the videos have been getting better also. Since you like quality you need to upgrade from that Spyderco to a Chris Reeve.. also made in USA. You’ll never look back 💪🏼👍🏼🔪

Did you ever put the link for the knife?

It was a deal breaker for me that I could not get the bit that I wanted by putting the one I was done with away

My body: it's 4:55 am, you need sleep! My Brain: I haven't seen the latest VCG Construction video yet! My body: just watch it when you wake up! My brain: I don't need sleep! I need more VCG in my life My body: Carry on then There's always time for the very cool gang!

I use ratcheting screwdrivers more then standard screwdrivers

If they made the handle square or oval shaped. It would fit in your pocket better.

How do you remove a stuck screw tip that's rusted

I still say my Leatherman with interchangeable bits is the best multitool I've carried Haha

I got the Klein ratcheting screwdriver and love it . But harbor freight copyed thear screw driver 90%. Just a different color . How much you pay for your pocket knife ? And they booth lock for those don't like the ratching.

It's also a 1/4inch nut driver if you really need to use it that way

What's up with the link for the noife?

that hidden feature there is the main feature.. x-D if it wasn't a normal screwdriver and not a ratchet screwdriver it would be much shorter in length, and, one could replace all the bits with the ones you usually need

The non ratcheting milwaukee is pass through. U put a bit and puah through to get the next

4:37 😂😂😂

It more interesting to put a 12 inch long bit in a screw gun.

The bigger/standard version of this screwdriver is hot garbage. The tips are super easy to break.

Link to the knife please

U should get a vetopro backpack

Stanley and Dewalt screw drivedhas been that for years.

Klein stubby 6in1 For the Win

I was almost considering purchasing one until you said it was made in america...
