This is an ingenious tool I’m sure was invented by an electrician. If you come across an electrical box that you can’t start a screw in, this tool taps the threads. It’s designed so it graduates to bigger sizes. Just pop it into the hole and it will move to the correct size. It taps 6-32, 8-32 and 10-24 screws. All the standard sizes!

From a young age, I roamed the aisles of my dad’s True Value Hardware store playing with the tools and gadgets.
