WHERE ARE MY PRECISION SCREWDRIVERS

Fuck that, Robertson, hex or torx.
Robertson is incredible, in Canada it is often used to build outdoor patio for instance, it's magical to use, I love those screws

Phillips? JIS? Only way to find out is to ruin that screw!

I think your drill is the machine that does that, though.

Torx needs to become the standard for screws. They are just better in every way.

You can accidentally strip a Phillips by hand if you have a half decent driver and a normal quality screw

It's kinda funny that a screwhead intended to solve one problem went on to create an arguably worse problem for many applications.
Shoulda just payed Robertson.

Use your drill's clutch, people (yeah you can strip with a hand driver but that's clearly a drill)

This literally happened to a screw I have in my literal body

Payed is incorrect, it is paid

The Nordics are far ahead in this. Torx everywhere.

The main problem wthe the X shaped model is that there are so many different versions with different angles and points oe lack thereof that it can be hard to tell which is which at a glance, increasing the chance of stripping if you don't check for proper fit.
Not to mention you might be working on something where the prior person mixed and matched different screws head types on the same project!

No, they were stringing him out ....

It's not an X, it's a +. I will die on this hill.

In new build stuff, I've actually been seeing a lot more torx.

I can snap the heads of cheaply made screws or ones made from softer material like "brass" with a screwdriver let alone an impact driver.
If I am doing something with a lot of screws, say decking, then I will spend more on my screws simply because I want better quality if I am going to be fitting a few hundred in a day. I also want to know that if I come back to it in a few years that the screw will unscrew quickly when I come to it. Sure it can be a significant cost increase but the time and frustration saved makes it back.
Quality screwdrivers like Vessel Megadora or Wera or Swisstools or similar tend to cam out less than the pack of ten you got from the dollar store. Same with the hex bits for your impact or drill driver.
Last test I heard had Roberson above Torx for reducing cam out, but if you camming Torx that easily I would just switch to an actual hex headed screw if it needs that much torque to tighten.

I just hadn't woken up to remember keyboards had a plus sign.
