you need to get a set of screwdrivers WITH the keeper clips on the ends of them... they were really popular with electricians years ago untill latley have been hard to find.... untill the other day sears had a whole setof craftsmans... if your not sure what i speak of lemme know i think i can scab a pic from somewhere

and a BFH... bigger the better

and of coarse... fridge full of beer,, back pocket full of copenhagen,,,and a mouth full of curse
Im not even sure I know what your talking about, but it sounds interesting.

Keeper screwdrivers have thin strips on each side of the blade that bend inward on the bottom. Pushing down on a "lever" on the shaft extends the keepers and opens them. They hold the screw to the blade so you can get the threads started. Once you do that, push down to release and tighten the screw. They are great for places where you cannot use a magnetic screwdriver, may not have steel screws, and in tight locations.

It's difficult to see, but this is an example:
