ABSTRACT:
A device for rotating tools on an axis which is not parallel to the rotational axis of a rotational driving source. Bevel gears and other mechanical means redirect forces from a rotational driving source, such as a portable rechargeable screwdriver, into forces capable of rotating tools to perform tasks on an axis not parallel to the rotational axis of the driving source. A rigid housing encloses most of the mechanical means for redirecting forces. A preferred embodiment comprises an adapter kit including a plurality of connectors for connecting the housing of the device to a plurality of differently sized powered driving sources. A method is also described in which tools may be rotated on an axis not parallel to the rotational axis of the rotational drive source.
