The magnets must have fallen out BUT you can use vasoline to hold
the screw.

The 5/16 was used in Admiral & others. Also made a XL philips
for rice boxes. Almost all Xcelite are of the highest quality.

If I can find one I will give u the model so you can watch E-bay
for one. Once you have it they will have to pry it out of your
cold dead hands !

Whoa, I could use those to beat the crap out of an attacker as well.

They're a little rich for my blood at the moment, especially with the abysmal exchange rates. I'd rather wait out a set complete with magnets anyway. At least I now know what to look for.

Xcelite tools were totally worth the extra money, they sit on my bench to this day. I dont lose them like the others because they stay in the shop

I have a mini-shorty 5/16" model P10 in my pocket today for some reason
