Pah, I sneer at your electric screwdriver. As soon as the battery starts to flatten, it is weak and innefectual (I know, I have one :-D)

The one I took the picture of is limited only by the strength in your arm ;-)

I keep two charged batteries and one of these handy!

 :-P

1/2" Keyless Chuck, Variable Speed, Hammer Drill, 6.5A, 0-3000 RPM, 0-48000 BPM

Of course, you can fit screwdriver heads to them but that isn't the point. Powered tools are to DIrtY Harry what a submachine gun would be to Harry Calahan.

Did you see Calahan with an automatic weapon? Did you? Well, did you, punk?

Of course not. DIrtY Harry has no need for such contrivences, either :-P

DIrtY Harry would be prepared, weapon and bullets!

What's wrong with one of these.. saves all the hassle of those fiddly flat pack
fixings.


3 nails a second, and a lovely aftersmell of burnt propane :-D
And when you disable the safety mechanism, they can fire for about 100 yards, just enough to pick off a running chav.

Nice tool ...  but  ...  nails are inferior fasteners!

When building, the pullout strength of screws is superior to nails!!!!

DIrtY Harry would NEVER use nails!
:-P

Screws have far less shear strength compared to nails, and take longer to use. Both have there strengths and weaknesses, it just comes down to choosing the best fixing for the job, we still use oak pegs at work to hold stuff in place.

 just use the large hammer ....

One question, why the hell, in a crowded set, was the safety disabled? Seriously, wth were they thinking?

After some googling, it's actually a promo for this show on HGTV:
