Multipurpose drywall tool

A method of using a multipurpose drywall tool comprising the steps of:

• obtaining the multipurpose drywall tool comprising:
• a blade having an edge extending traversely to a longitudinal axis of the blade, wherein the length of the edge is at least four inches;
• a handle having a proximate and distal end, the distal end of the handle having two opposing corners, the proximate end of the handle attached to the blade;
• a screwdriver bit, wherein the screwdriver bit is selected from the group consisting of a Phillips-head bit and a slotted bit;
• an engaging means disposed within a orifice in the distal end of the handle, the engaging means for disengagably engaging the screwdriver bit, wherein the engaging means comprises a magnet within the orifice, the magnet adapted to reversibly receive the screwdriver bit when the screwdriver bit is inserted into the orifice;
• and
• a pair of rounded hammer members attached to the two opposing corners of the distal end of the handle, wherein the pair of rounded hammer members are composed of metallic material selected from the group consisting of aluminum, tin, copper, iron, nickel, manganese, titanium, carbon steel, stainless steel, galvanized steel, brass, bronze and mixtures thereof;
• locating a nail sticking into a drywall surface;
• holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• pounding down the located nail into the drywall surface with one of the rounded hammer members of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• getting an aliquot of putty;
• scooping out a portion of the putty from the aliquot of putty with the blade of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• smearing the portion of putty over the pounded down nail in the drywall surface with the blade of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• smoothing the smeared portion of putty onto the drywall surface with the blade of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• finding a Phillips head screw screwed into the drywall surface;
• inserting the screwdriver bit into the orifice in the distal end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool so that the Phillips-head bit points away from the distil end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• un-screwing the found Phillips head screw from the drywall surface with the screwdriver bit inserted into the orifice in the distal end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool to expose an aperture in the drywall surface;
• ladling out a fraction of the putty from the aliquot of putty with the blade of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• overlaying the fraction of the putty over the exposed aperture in the drywall surface;
• identifying a slotted head screw screwed into the drywall surface;
• withdrawing slidably the inserted screwdriver bit from the orifice in the distal end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• slipping in the screwdriver bit into the orifice in the distal end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool so that the slotted head bit points away from the distal end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• removing the identified slotted head screw from the drywall surface with the screwdriver bit slipped into the orifice in the distal end of the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool to expose a bore hole in the drywall surface;
• taking out a parcel of the putty from the aliquot of putty with the blade of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool;
• and
• covering up the exposed bore hole in the drywall surface with the parcel of putty with the blade of the multipurpose drywall tool while holding onto the handle of the multipurpose drywall tool.
