Problem: Assembling a toy or attaching a switch plate seems too minor a job for a trip to the basement to retrieve that unwieldy power screwdriver. But after 10 turns, you could really use one.
Solution: The Grip & Drive Powered Screwdriver from Igo Home Products (five inches, $7, www.igohomeproducts.com for store locations) is small enough to fit in a kitchen drawer.
