minus-square@FluffyBun98linkfedilink10•1 year agoSquare drive on personal projects, forever and always. Maybe I’m buying the wrong torx, Phillips, and flat screws, but they strip out way too often. I’ve never had issues with square drive screws no matter where or how I use them
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•1 year agoYup, anytime I’m driving into solid wood, it’s square head screws. Phillips heads slip out under the stress and end up stripped.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 year agoLook at the history of Phillips screws. They’re designed to torque out. Automobile assembly line workers can’t be trusted to not overtighten them
