Why has Philips become the common name for one type of screwdriver?
In 1936, inventor Henry M. Phillips patented the Philips head screw. Cross recess on the head of this screw does not reach its edge, so the tip of the screwdriver is always fixed in the center of the screw head.
Rice. Safety glasses are the most necessary accessory any toolbox
Rice. Combination wrench. Both wrench heads are sized for the same bolt head size. Please note that the open end is angled towards the key handle to facilitate working in tight spaces
Rice. Three open-end wrenches of different qualities. The cheapest (left) is made of flimsy steel, thicker and rougher than a standard key (center). Shown on the right is a professional-quality key (and the corresponding price)
Do not use such a tool
A young mechanic who went to work in a workshop, arriving at work on the first day, put his toolbox on the workbench. Another mechanic saw that in it, along with a full set quality tools, there are several adjustable wrenches, said: "Take this away from the eyes of the authorities." The movable jaws of an adjustable wrench often slide over the surface of the head of a bolt or nut, rounding off sharp edges, and it becomes much more difficult to unwind such a damaged fastener.
Rice. A split-head box wrench with a hexagonal mouth. Also known under the names "water wrench", "locksmith wrench" or "pipe wrench". The jaw of this wrench covers most of the faces of the hexagonal profile of pipeline fittings and allows you to grip the part as tightly as possible without damaging it
Rice. Ring-head box spanner. Recommended for loosening and tightening bolts and nuts when a socket wrench cannot be used. The heads on both sides of the key are numbered differently. Such a wrench is preferable to an open-end wrench because it covers the bolt head around the perimeter, and not only on both sides, like an open-end wrench.
Rice. The open-end wrench is a general purpose tool. The heads on both sides of the key have a different seating size (number). An open-end wrench should not be used to tighten “all the way” or to loosen tightly threaded connection due to the danger of it being torn off the head of a bolt or nut
Rice. Flat blade screwdrivers (left) vary in blade length and blade thickness. The thickness of the tip should correspond to the width of the slot on the screw head. Phillips screwdrivers (right) differ in length and size of the "patch" on the tip of the tip. The smallest "patch" of the Philips screwdriver # 1, the Philips screwdriver # 2 (shown in the photo) - the most common - has a larger one. The bluest tip of the Philips # 3 screwdriver is designed to work with the largest screws
Reception using grinding paste
Apply a small amount of grinding paste to the head of the bolt or screw, used for lapping the valves. It will "grab" the tip of a screwdriver or other tool, not allowing it to "break" from the fastener. You can buy such a paste in tubes at any auto parts store.
Rice. A variety of ticks. Combination pliers (far left) are often confused with water crimping pliers (second from left)
Rice. Ball hammers (top) commercially available vary in head weight (usually in ounces). Below is a hammer with a soft (plastic) striker. The hammer head should always be softer (have a higher ductility) than the material being processed. To avoid damage when machining cast iron or steel engine parts, insert a block of wood or similar material between it and the steel-headed hammer.
Rice. Different kinds socket wrenches
Rice. Various options extension cords (extensions) of socket heads. The universal swivel extension, shown in the center (bottom), is convenient for working in hard-to-reach places
Rice. Socket heads - dodecahedral, hexagonal and octahedral. It is better to use hex heads, as they cover all six facets of the head of a standard bolt or nut, allowing you to apply more force without breaking off the faces of the head
Rice. The hexagonal socket rests on all faces of the bolt or nut head. The twelve-sided head, if excessive force is applied, can "break" the edges of the head of a bolt or nut
Rice. Sockets: standard twelve-sided short (left), articulated (center) and elongated (right). The last two are hex
Rice. Standard files. Never use a file without a handle
Rice. The mechanical collet (top) and the telescopic probe with magnet at the end (bottom) are irreplaceable tools, if you need to get a small part that has fallen into a place where you cannot reach with your fingers
Rice. Stethoscope - with its help a mechanic "listens" to the engine, looking for a place from which a suspicious noise is coming
Rice. Typical sharpening machine... Pay attention to the installed on it protective shield... But while the screen does provide some eye protection, be sure to use protective goggles when working on this or any other machine.
Rice. Hacksaw saw. Barbs hacksaw blade must be oriented away from the saw handle. The thinner the material to be cut, the smaller the teeth of the hacksaw blade should be.
Rice. Drill (top) with spiral flutes (grooves) and reamer (bottom) with straight cutting edges
Rice. Drill cutting edge
Rice. Various punches (left) and chisel (right)
Rice. The striker of this chisel is riveted, and this is dangerous (a). If you hit such a chisel with a hammer, sharp pieces of metal can break off and injure you. When you find a tool with a riveted face, grind off the riveted part as shown in this photo. This will avoid the risk of injury (b)
Rice. Tapping using a hand die
Rice. Taps - roughing and finishing. Finishing taps are commonly used to clean or update existing threads in parts.
Rice. Dies are used to cut external threads on cylindrical rods, and taps are used to cut internal thread in the holes
Rice. Installing the tap in drilled hole... To obtain the required clearance in the thread, the hole diameter must exactly match the size of the tap. A drill of the corresponding diameter is called a threaded drill.
Rice. For orderly storage small parts convenient inexpensive mesh tray
Rice. A good portable fluorescent lamp is essential for work. Fluorescent Lamp does not heat up as much as an incandescent light bulb and will not cause a fire if accidentally splashed with gasoline, unlike the unprotected incandescent bulbs used in some emergency lights
Rice. For a start, it is enough to have a set of only the most necessary tools... Experienced, highly trained auto mechanics spend thousands of dollars annually buying tools, such as the one assembled in this large (and expensive) toolbox.
Each master needs a tool to complete the work. It is difficult to hammer in a nail without a hammer, or tighten a bolt without a screwdriver. Today there are more complex devices, allowing you to significantly speed up the process.

- manual screwdriver (brace), this device also works from muscle strength, but due to the design it allows you to speed up the process;
- an electric screwdriver, such a device tightens screws in a matter of seconds, and only one effort is needed from the master - to press the button.
If you plan to carry out one-time work, then you can use a hand tool, this is what was used before the appearance of electrical counterparts.
If the volume of work is large, then it is better to purchase a device that will speed up and facilitate this process. These tools are powered by an engine powered by electricity, diesel or gasoline, or compressed air.
