No leds to see where you screwing (e.g inside a PC case) no extension to make it longer or ability to remove the stem to make it shorter to reach that screw from above(e.g on a noctua cooler in the 100 other other instances where you need it to be a little longer than the average screw driver) or short so that you can screw something in tight spaces or an flexible extension I rate this 6/10 the perfect clicky noise of the ratchet is like a low priority and you spent years and money for that instead for features that would actually make it more useful than the average screw driver...

@10aDowningStreet Год назад

@@torq1116 Not sure how they could charge more, I picked up one from a £1 store yesterday, same size, shape, stores bits in the head... added bonus it also tightens and loosens screws!!! You can buy a top of the range Bosch GO cordless electric for £60, a very good generic electric cordless for £20, a high quality set of multiple specialty drivers for an array of jobs from Stanley, Draper etc, who invest millions in R&D as well as endurance testing, for less than this one jack-of-all-trades non-precision item (whose handle is to big for working in PCs). Some folks have bypassed their logic & critical thinking centres to be a part of the LTT brand and I think it's an undeniable rip-off, and a rather dubious concept. I know they vastly over-spent on its production but that doesn't change the fact the price is completely unhinged in relation to the market. tbh I kind of lost a little respect when I saw how much Linus, a multi-millionaire, is asking regular working folks to shell out, it's madness, I think he's a little out of touch.

I used to work in hardened steel tool and die; when linus says it's difficult to machine, picture this: we had ultrahard carbide tooling, as hard as sapphire, with coatings on it to make it shed heat, wear evenly and not pick up chips of metal, that were themselves made up of ultrahard metal composites. The tools were about 50-200 dollars CAD each. They had an expected lifetime of about 10-20 minutes each when cleaning up post-hardening steel. We had specially designed drillbit heads because our carbide supplier considered what we were doing was nuts and didn't support it in their stock lineup. They were good for, if we were extremely careful, about 2-10 holes each depending on the depth. This is steel that is so hard, that you could take the hardest, meanest file you could find, run it down a corner, and kill the file in about three strokes without leaving a mark. This stuff is *evil*, and in a completely different world to aluminum, and is still not the wildest thing we use in the tool and die world; there's a type of steel that is usually found on the bottom edge of grader and snowplow blades. We don't... actually have a way to do detailed machining on it without EDM. Not 'suboptimal', there's literally only a few drills in our arsenal that could touch it. It was used in giant square blocks when it WAS used, for extreme wear points. Superalloys are wild.

As the video progressed and I could see just how much of a perfectionist approach Linus took to the design of this which promptly changed my thought to "this is going to be a worthy purchase".

It's true for basically any job that is line work, be it warehousing or factory. Especially if there was a rate that had to be met and the higher ups were also expected to reach that rate during their time on the line, and get penalized somehow if they don't. (My job has an aggressive curve to their "now you know the job so make rate" time, you're expected to be about 80% of rate after the first week, including the two days spent just teaching you the basics. It's stupid and wouldn't happen if management got dinged for doing as badly as the people they fire.)

But more on the technical side of that... it depends on the technological process, how long is the real cooling time, injection speed and holding preasure and so on.

@@ZaPpaul if only there were more videos with good CCs. Do you have any idea how great it is to cruise through a boring video conference by watching a yt video (on mute)?

Tbf, they used to have someone or some company do their subtitles. It’s just that they kept getting things incredibly wrong. It was a mess. Wish they’d try again

The screwdriver is a bit too expensive for my blood relative to what it offers, but I can respect the engineering that went into it. Congrats on the launch, Linus & Co.!

Yep it's a bit expensive

Wayyyy to expensive , more so then snap on with a lifetime warranty

I mean, PB Swiss is like twice as expensive, but yeah, it's not cheap.

I will buy it and write it off as a business expense to support LTT

Pretty cool, I'm going to be ordering mine very soon, my Christmas gift to me this year! From the timing on the injection mold, it looks like that one machine can produce a little over 102,000 handles per month if it's run 24/7, not counting any down time for maintenance. From the looks of the sales on your website store things are going great. I'm going to get the black and orange one with the silver shaft to start then maybe another two or three for myself down the road and probably several more for gifts next year. I hope you make enough to fully fund your retirement, all from one really well designed and manufactured screwdriver.

I love it, I wasn’t planning on buying a new screwdriver since I don’t really, Need it, but this will almost definitely be my next screwdriver, I’d be using it for a mix of computer and car work but the attention to detail you showed here proves it’s worth it

@kaonashi9200 Год назад

I appreciate it when someone puts this level of care and personal touch on a product. I will gladly order of these since I was already wanting a good ratchet screwdriver. Will update when I receive the product.

As an engineer who's worked a wide range of teams/products I really appreciated this video. I'm working on molded production parts professional right now myself and considering looking into running my own small business and its just cool to see someone else openly discussing their product tip to butt.

Really was looking forward for this screwdriver, but can't justify it for 69.99

As an electrical engineer; Nothing less from our dropmaster! We always knew how Linus was obsessed with simple and high performance concepts, He kinda shows it on the product he produces as well. Congratulations: On the flip side, boy, I'm an APU user and won't spend 70$ for a screwdriver. And for my workplace, even though I do the orders, I get not as good as LTT SD ones, but I get my multitool screwdriver for 15 bucks from "İzeltaş" I wish there are other engineering companies that would order say, 2000 units from you. Still, gotta give the credits, I would buy one, I just can't. It's like Lambo of screwdrivers. High qualiy stuff, and very question-proof demonstration of product! I'm glad to see how nice Linus' OCD is fruiting.
