OP you are dumb as hell. If you're trashing philips head screws then you probably shouldn't be near any tools in the first place as it's clear you don't have the mental capacity to do things properly.

Believe it or not, there's varying sizes and depths and pitches to Phillips drivers. I don't bother to familiarize myself with them since this is 2015 and Torx are the superior product.

I don't bother to familiarize myself with them since this is 2015 and Torx are the superior product. At least it's immediately obvious if you're using the wrong size of Torx or Robertson driver. Phillips is poo poo, it can go gently caress itself and die.

liquorlanche posted:Why the gently caress do Phillips head screws exist? Slotted can withstand far more torque. Phillips was designed self center and to cam out to avoid over-torquing. Phillips is great for rapid assembly but piss-poor for precision work. It likes to strip if you have the wrong bit. Phillips is a pile of poo poo and I try to use torx any time I can for framing.

the proest method of unscrewing things is to melt a bic pen to the point where it's almost fluid and jam it onto the screw and let it cool

The only Philips screws that are okay are the ones that also take Robertson. Also, lol at slotted, it's not the 18th century any more.

The head is cut straight across like a regular flat screw, but the edges are shaped so that it can only be tightened.

Mange Mite posted:Aren't those things basically the betamax of screws nah theyre still widely used and industry loves them b/c they dont cam out + that resistance to camout tends to hold even if the bit is seated poorly, unlike a lot of camout-resistant screw types + the screw naturally clings to the bit without magnetic fuckery cause of the tapers involved

tbf I think electric drills aren't that well designed; the gun grip makes it hard to apply pressure at the same angle as the bit, which causes a lot of stripped/missed screws. I think building a drill that let you put force right behind the bit would be a lot better - think of a cordless drill with the handle of an orbital sander. say, something like this:

I use robinson most of the time, and it's not a question of the type of head - it's simply the kind of screw and how much leverage you can apply to the driver. You try putting 4" #12 wood screws into an eave just at the end of your reach while perched on a ladder, and tell me you don't need to apply force. e:  in the middle of a snowstorm, after walking 15 miles uphill
