My Dewalt Cordless Drill has a bunch of Clutch settings, so you can have it start to slip and not over-tighten things once they seat fully in. I also use a tiny drop of Dishwashing Soap on Screw and Bolt Threads.

The RV Geeks all use Power Drills now to rapidly turn and extend down the Stabilizer Jacks at their RV/Trailer corners. I don't 'do' IKEA, but I have done Flat Pack 'stuff'. It's mega-huge in Japan. You can haul the Furniture to your tiny 'Rabbit Hutch' Apartment, as they call them. 20' x 20' is a standard Apt. size in Urban areas. This explains Futons, and small Tables with tiny Electric Grills built into the center of them.

They even have lil Disposable Wheels strapped on the Flat Pack to make Urban Transport easy.
I swear, my husband and I made a very similar set-up for the allen wrenches years ago! I was super relieved to find out that I just needed a phillips head tonight.
