The factory T50 star bit screws that keep the hard top on, as we all know, necessitate the use of a tool, that even with ratcheting, requires a fair amount of same to get the screws on and off, at least compared to putting the star bit in an electric screw driver.
Thumb screws on the other hand don't require tools but a lot of wrist rotation.
Has anyone seen a generic thumb screw tightener whose "business end" sits on top of the thumb screws, and whose "non-business end" has, for example, a male hex configuration that might fit into such an electric screw driver or drill?
I know such solutions sort of defeat the purpose of "torqueing hardware independent" thumb screws in the first place, but they would speed up the screwing process, when say, working with the rig at home.
