The official "WTF" thread

I didn't know there were so many types of screw drives. I never liked those slotted or flat heads.

And newer residential electrical recepticals, switches and breakers have the "ECX" screws that 'somewhat' take a Phillips or slot but not very well. Milwaukee makes an ECX1 and an ECX2 bit and a ECX screw driver that fits snug and lets you tighten without slippage or messing up the screw head.

Didjya ever get to feeling like they were changing simple stuff, not nearly so much to improve it, but rather to frustrate and confuse people?

Now they can alter them with the original source destroyed. Think of book burning...they can also discard what they want. Burying the Truth...this is not good for one company to control history, IMO.

And to my point:

COKE done went WOKE, and soon they will be BROKE.

I don't know about the rest of Europe but Germany uses the square head which I like.

I used some drywall screws awhile back with the square head, I really liked them.

Yeah, they seem to stay on the driver better than the MUCH older Phillips, of which I have some well worn boxes of. If I remember corrrectly ( I don't do much carpentry or construction) about all you can find in the way of deck and drywall screws these days are square head (Robertson) or Torx.

I just bought 2 square head bits for my Makita last week.
