Which cut line is correct? Don't know, both sides are screwed twisted beyond belief. This is the start cut, the first 2.5" inches are for kid's projects.... Another chance at loosing a finger or two. The worse part is that these were the best picks of the day. Every other 2X6 (1.5x5.5 for the non-retarded among us) were worse splintered, bent, twisted. They need to dry the wood slowly in a well spaced stack. I wouldn't wish any of this wood on anyone for anything.
I used to love Philips head screws until one day I tried torx. I'm never going back. I have some Philips around but you know the bits get worn and that damages screws. Sometimes you can't get the screws out. I just finished a large concrete wall project with all the forms held by the same 20 or so T25 screws. Its crazy how good and reusable they are.
Torx FTW. I only use Phillips in situations where Torx aren't available. They still aren't easily available in as many varieties as Phillips.
It's an interresting difference. Where I am, you can't get construction screws with phillips. I don't know when we switched, but I started as a carpenter apprentice about 10 years ago, and back then everything was torx.
Damn. Where do you live? In general. I'm in the Minnesota, and it's almost easier to find Robertson screws, because Canada.
Robertson is always the correct answer.
It's better than Phillips, for sure. I prefer Torx, myself, but as long as it isn't Phillips, I'm in.
Scandinavia, don't know about the rest of Europe, but up here philips is pretty much exclusively for cheap furniture.
Oh, yeah. Phillips is dominant in the US; patents and marketing. Except on the Canadian border, where Robertson bleeds over a bit. But Torx is slowly making gains; franchises like Ace carry them. There's just not as much variety as Phillips yet. Even looking online, the only way you can get some types is by going to contractor sites where the options are buying 1,000 or more of the thing; I need, like, 2 screws to fix my door hinge. Places like Amazon US doesn't carry Torx door hinge screws.
I was taking to a guy at Ace a couple of years ago, and he was saying that Ace was slowly switching to Torx inventory - more baskets were being dedicated to Torx screws every year. The conversion is just very slow.
