It’s time for this week’s Cool Tool review. This time, we’re taking a look at this right angle adapter for your drill or impact driver, made by Dewalt.
Sometimes you need to put a screw in a spot where your drill just can’t fit. I recently had this happen right here in my shed where I record these. I had to repair some of the rotten framing in the corner, but the spacing between the studs was so tight I couldn’t get my impact driver in there to screw in some new wood.
This attachment from Dewalt is specially made to get into tight spots. It can be used with any driver or drill chuck, not just Dewalt. By spinning the shaft, the adapter spins the screwdriver bit at a right angle.
The bit can face left, right, up or down, and you need to stabilize it with your other hand to direct it where you want to go, but it does the job.
One thing that surprised me about this adapter, but is actually pretty smart, is that you have to use a screwdriver or extra bit to eject whatever bit is in here. This helps minimize how much space the bit takes up
It’s also because Dewalt has this magnetic lip out in front of the bit that latches right onto your screw head and holds it flat, which is a great feature when your dangling the screw into a tight spot or over your head, and you don’t want it falling down.
It came in handy for me. You can pick one up using the link in the description and you can see thousands of reader recommended tools like this at Cool-Tools.org.

I knew there had to be something like this. I had a flexible extension - but that is garbage. Broke mine. This, on this video, looks to be built well. I bought one with a flexible shaft and worked great for my project.
This is fantastic. I was just having this problem today and it drove me insane 😂
thanks for posting
Does it work with drill bits?
You have to use those that have the shank on them, but yes.

So, basically an ad.
