  • Generally with torx screws, you don’t need much leverage. I suggest buying better screws.

    For example, Spax torx screws have little razor blades on the tips so that when you are driving, they function as a drill as well. This means that you don’t really have to apply force to them from the back.

    Another thing you can do is use a hammer drill. A hammer drill will make short work of any of that.

    Another option is to use a right angle adapter.

    Additionally, the torx bit should fit in the screw head to the point that it kind of suctions in place like a Lego. Spax, as an example, includes bits in every screw box, and they are probably the best bits you can get.

    Another brand (I don’t like them as well but whatever) is GTK.
