Finger Grip Socket Set

Finger stapped socket set allows digital bolt tigthening
Boing Boing Gadgets — This is genius: a set of 21 sockets that can be strapped to the finger and wiggled into the inner most crooks of your furniture for bolt tightening with the utmost contempt for leverage or awkward positioning.

At least you’ll only have wasted $20 on it. [ WhateverWorks ] VIA [ BookOfJoe ] ...
