I like the size, weight and included nylon caps of the Hongdui KM-18. You can buy these at a great price if you shop around.

If you are able to get a long driver bit and a narrow head trim screw back there I don’t think anybody would ever know.

Post: RE: Problem with DeWalt drill

To me it sounds more like a switch problem. If you take it apart, give the switch a shot or two of compressed air and see if that helps.

I’ll give the Ridgid that Gary recommended an up vote. Combined with a Dusttopper it makes shop life more appealing because the vacuum cleaner filter isn’t clogging all the time. I have a Festool CT33...

Try looking for either stone tile or outdoor rated porcelain tiles. I would really urge the use of the stone tiles. Menards carries a few.

A warning about setting mud is that it can create paint flashing even when well primed. I would recommend bucket mud as a final top coat.
