Anyone who uses small hand tools for detail-oriented projects like crafting, modeling, repairing electronics, 3D printing, or general tinkering should check out the Hoto Tools Snapbloq collection. The Snapbloq is a modular cordless tool system featuring a unique magnet and hook storage structure functioning as a customizable workstation, desktop organizer, and portable carry kit.

I recently tested the full set, which includes a screwdriver master set, a mini rotary tool kit, and a mini drill set. I am happy to share that the tools don’t just look cool—they actually work well. These tools are ideal for precision assembly, smoothing and polishing, drilling, and other detail work in wood, plastic, thin metals, and more.

Each of the three different tools shares a similar design and mechanical features. They’re equipped with advanced brushless motors, planetary reduction gears, and smart chips to prevent overheating and over-torquing. They feature ergonomic anodized aluminum covers with a matte finish and slip-resistant textured grips.

The LED ring work lights above the chuck/collet provide shadow-free work visibility. Each is powered by a built-in rechargeable 3.7-volt 800 mAh lithium-ion battery that delivers up to 60 minutes of runtime per charge, and can be recharged via USB-C (cable included) in approximately 90 minutes. The tools weigh about 4 ounces, and each one comes with a complete set of bits.

I really liked the size, weight, and overall design of the tools. They felt comfortable in the hand, were easy to control, and provided more than enough power and runtime for assembling parts, drilling moderately hard materials, polishing, and shaping. The motors operate quietly, too. The rotary tool was the only one of the three tools that did not include a built-in light due to its cone-shaped bit sleeve, which was a slight disappointment, but my old work light worked just fine for the occasion.

The drill and screwdriver bits are very well organized, although I plan on adding size labels to the drill bit case to make it easier to locate the ones I need. The rotary tool case needs more refinement—the bits were shipped in plastic bags, and there was no way to keep the various bits from rolling around in the case after I unpacked them. 

For those who don’t need the entire series, any of the three tools may be purchased as a stand-alone unit. The S-A01 Screwdriver Master Set has three speed settings (120, 180, and 250 rotations per minute (RPM)) with torque ratings of 0.05, 0.35, and 0.5 Newton-meters (N-m) respectively. It comes with a set of 56 S2 alloy driver bits.

The R-A04 Electric Mini Rotary Tool Kit features stepless speed adjustment from 15,000 to 22,000 RPM and includes a 38-piece accessory kit for grinding, carving, sanding, and polishing.

The D-A03 Electric Mini Drill Set features speed settings of 600, 900, and 1,200 RPM, and a 0.1 N-m torque rating. The drill bit set includes 20 M2 steel drill bits.
