Anyone ever use the GraBit ?

I've seen it on tv, and thought, looks like it probably works.. $20 seems a little high for 3 little bits.

I actually bought one of these to try. It worked... on the first screw. I think it wore out the cutting head after that. For the price, totally not worth it. You're supposed to be able to use a drill. There was no way in hell it was going to work with a drill. You just can't get the force behind it. I ended up using some pliers to clamp and slowly rotate the bit to extract the screw.

I need to clean up a surface rusted exhaust header and piping. What are some good options for cleaning it up?

Wire wheel on a drill?

Maybe something like this?

Need to clean it up for welding, want to clean the whole thing, or want to clean it so that you can paint it properly?

The welds are fine. More clean it up for wrapping the header.

This is the first I have ever heard of one failing :ohdear: How long did you have it? Where is it leaking from? Did they replace it under warranty?

Oh, I've had mine blow a seal too. Just didn't give a gently caress and got a new one. Probably easily fixed.

It still worked, just slowly lowered itself.

Any recommendations for wheel dollies? Would be using them with a classic mini on a concrete garage with no seams. There is a slope though.
