1-star Review by "BrokenTools":
I agree with the one-star reviews. This tool is flimsy crap. It is but a humble hand tool.
This humble $5 hand tool can be fixed and be made more worthy. All it takes is an additional 3/4" #10 machine screw, and a nut. Take it apart, as if you were going to replace the head with one of the auxiliaries (the extra, or spare). Replace the center pin with a nut and bolt. You need a #10 machine screw, at least 3/4 of an inch length. I re-used the spring, but it could be optional. Another improvement might be a rubber washer on the backside with the nut. Tighten appropriately, but not too tight. The spring-loaded quick-change pin is useless, pointless, worthless. Trash it. This fancy piece of crap is the weakest point of the tool. Tools should be functional, not fancy. It deserves 3 or 4 stars. But I thought I'd throw the DIY upgrade/repair instructions down in the 1-star section for cynical people like me who have their doubts and check the 1-star reviews first. My first HF review. Thanks for reading.
