DRIVERS, REVERSIBLE SOCKETS, AND METHODS OF USE AND MANUFACTURE THEREOF
Generally, this disclosure enables various drivers, reversible sockets, and methods of use and manufacture thereof. For example, some of these drivers can avoid laterally rolling off an inclined surface (e.g., between about 15 degrees and about 25 degrees). For example, some of these drivers can avoid using excessive material. For example, some of these drivers can allow for stacking of drivers and thereby be efficient to package for shipping. For example, some of these sockets can provide a tactile feedback for a user to know which ends of those sockets are currently being handled.

This disclosure enables various bits for widening open end portions of tubes and methods of manufacture and use thereof. Some implementations of such bits include a bit with a cylindrical shape and a tip extending from the cylindrical shape. Therefore, the bit can be used by (a) inserting the cylindrical shape into an electric drill, (b) securing the cylindrical shape in the electric drill, (c) inserting the tip into an open end portion of a tube (e.g., copper, aluminum), and (d) rotationally driving the cylindrical shape by the electric drill such that the open end portion is heated by friction via the tip being rotationally driven against the open end portion by the cylindrical shape thereby urging the open end portion to widen.
A method comprises: causing a user to receive a bit, the bit including a cylindrical shape and a bp extending away and opposite from the cylindrical shape; causing the user to attach the bit to an electric drill via (a) inserbng the cylindrical shape into the electric drill such that the bp extends out of, opposite, and away from the drill and (b) securing the cylindrical shape to the drill; and causing the user to insert the bit into an open end portion of an air-condiboning tube as the bit is being rotabonally driven by the drill via extending the bp into the open end portion while the cylindrical shape is rotabonally driven by the drill such that the open end portion is heated by fricbon via the bp being rotabonally driven against the open end portion by the cylindrical shape thereby urging the open end portion to widen.
