    1) "Slide on a quick change bit and screw
    The screw finder is for slotted screws. Using a power drill/driver with slotted screws in one of the most frustrating jobs for handymen. Unlike phillips head screws you must keep a right angle while driving and rely on your own coordination to keep the bit aligned with the slot. The screw finder slips around one of those long quick-change slotted bits and a flat head screw to take care of alignment."

    3) "Well, apparently you use it on the end of one of the driving bits, where it acts sort of like a collar to hold the screw in position on the end of the bit."
