Dear Listers,
I don't know, maybe everyone but me already knew about this little gem of a tool, but in case you missed it, I thought I share. If you don't have one of these, run - don't walk - down to your local Home Depot or Ace Hardware store and get one! All of those #8 screws in the RVs are a giant pain to work in and out and some are just impossible to get to. I've been using this little guy on the RV-8 project and can't image not having it now. The bendable shaft is really strong and you can bend the heck out of it without impacting the torque. Its about $13 at Home Depot which is a great deal considering how handy it is.
Here's a link to it on the Ace Hardware web page. I also attached a picture of mine attached to my Dewalt electric screw driver.

I've already got one. It really works great - until it breaks. I plan on getting a new one.

Sorry I don't have a picture ...... but Wal Mart has a nifty offset
screwdriver that's just a little longer than a bit extender ..... has a
sleeve that unlocks the ball joint that effectively does the same thing
as the spiral driver. Look for a red sleeve. Great tool for a couple
of bucks!!!

I use one on both the RV8 and RV10. Great tool. Purchased it at Home Depot.
