    I got a short, as in 1 inch or so, screwdriver in there. It is just the right size to get out screws in cover plate. It also has recessed area in top to put finger in while turning. Love it and it cost around a dollar.

    I have been using the Harbor Freight blades that fit my rotary cutter and have NEVER had a problem with them.
    I think they are great and it surely saves me money.

    My DH laughed at me the last time we were in there because I was looking at everything so carefully - when he asked what I was doing, I just told him "I'm scouting for sewing goodies." Those scissors look like they would be useful and the pick set. I would say you did well, girl, and provided me with a new shopping list to boot!! :-)

    I love Harbor Freight. I like just cruising the aisles to see what is available.
