exactly, that thread has sometime become annoyance to me, why someone should give her a door knock teach her everything.

Hello, I'm Horst and I live in Saxony  :)
I work at the undertaker, but my hobby is electronics; i try to repair electrical devices, 99% of the time I don't solve the problem, but that's okay
 ^-^
Men usually read football magazines  :-//
but there are men who prefer to make love with electrons  ^-^
My equipment is: soldering station, two multimeters, bench power supply.
I'd like to start a seductive relationship with a screwdriver..   :palm:
I don't want to spend too much, but I don't want to buy the worst...
For example the model PB Swiss 6100 is ok for beginner man? or better Wera 917 SPH?
Other brands on these prices?
Do you have any advice for me? i am in your hands...
thanks
Horst.

For someone with a track record of > 2500 postings on this forum, a lack of such tool is a bit disturbing.
Everybody likes gadgets. Until they try to make them.

If it was a mechanical forum you would be right  ;D
It would be worse if he didn't have a soldering iron or multimeter.

I came awfully close to opening a similarly phrased thread, but thankfully someone else did!

Some day in an online university class called socio-electro archaeology these two threads will form the basis of a case study.

Edit: Just kidding, sort of

My screwdriver collection is larger than my multi-meter collection. 
 
Some of the equipment I work on has lots and lots of screws.   For these, I have a Bosch PS20 that I really like.  It has all sorts of control at very low speeds and the torque can be set so low that I use it with pretty much any application.  I think it goes up to around 80 inch lbs.   Its gentle enough for a woman but made for a man.

Just... wow! But I certainly like the writing style. Simply to the point, no drama, calling out stuff the way it is, but always in a respectful manner. (No wonder it did not sell.  :-DD just kidding.)

My go-to screwdriver on the bench is a Pic-Quic multique. 

I normally *hate* multibit screwdrivers, but I love the Pic-Quic. 

Can't lose the bits, they're always there, and built like a tank (and here in Vancouver, Canada too)

Oh great, now there are about a dozen Pic-Quics to study:

Do you have any advice for me?
Yes. Start with #2 Phillips, and work your way up to Robertson type before moving to using Flathead one. Once feel comfortable with the Flathead, turn the Phillips one around and repeat the relationships.

Horst don't buy the PB Swiss 6100 that's only for a beginner man ... my advice is to go for something a little more expensive like WIHA or WERA set ... feel free to ask anything, this is the right place, we're all here to answer your questions ... your in good hands ...

I'm somewhat disappointing with Wiha.  Tips were not as well construed as the price suggested.  It's not hardened enough.  Few uses, all critical edges were lost and started slipping.

I have had the same experience with Wiha; their tips are not any harder than cheap brands.

Honestly the screwdrivers I get the most use out of are stubby 1/4" hex drivers so I can change the bits as they wear out; I have a bunch of Home Depot and Lowes bargain bin specials.

I am thinking of trying the Wera Kraftform series, and they are not cheap, but am still looking for good smaller set:
