Italian design company Giaco Whatever has created a precision limited edition kinetic screwdriver, aptly named the Kinetic Driver. Launched via Kickstarter, the project has already raised over $390,000 thanks to over 3600 backers with still 12 days remaining.
Innovative Design and Functionality
The Kinetic Driver stands out due to its innovative design and functionality. The total weight of the Kinetic Driver is meticulously calibrated to produce the right pressure on the screw, eliminating the need for the user to apply additional force. This feature alone sets it apart from conventional screwdrivers. Additionally, the Kinetic Driver is equipped with a ceramic bearing in the head, which gives it a unique, almost levitating feel between your fingers. This bearing ensures smooth and effortless rotation, making it a joy to use for extended periods.
Attention to Detail
The attention to detail in the Kinetic Driver is evident in its knurling pattern, which is carefully selected to provide a satisfactory grip, ensuring great control during use. The case that comes with the Kinetic Driver is not just a storage solution but also a smart platform to organize the small parts you’re working with. This thoughtful design makes it an indispensable tool for precision tasks.
Early bird pledges are available from €75, and worldwide delivery is expected to take place during November 2020.
