Question on Grabit.

[YipMan_Style]

I read the reviews. Mix results at times. Anyhow, I ordered it, so too late on that.



After reading and watching a few youtube video, I have a question.

Why do I set the drill in reverse to dig into the stripped screw/bolt?

The answer would be, if it's in forward, it would push the screw more in. But wait, the first step is to drill into the screw to create the hole. So how could "reverse" be able to "drill in." Do I need to need to lean into it to put my body weight in?

Perhaps the youtube video is not clear on this part or wrong.

Educate me on Grabit. TIA

Cant see the pic but i am assuming its like a easyout there fultes are the opposite of a standard drill bit so in reverse grabs and turs the screw/bolt out

Good reading. Well said. If the drill out thing made it smooth, then how is it going to get be able to grab it since the surface is smooth?

$30 already spent, so...
