KnarlyCarl Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Whaoh! Scratched it up on something or multiple somethings, that's cool. Looks like a dent on it too. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboS1ice Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Depends, I lean towards Torx Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I've never heard that called a Robertson. Square Drive is all I know...and Torx always wins. Square strips far easier IMO. Often Square is stainless which I feel is a bit softer than the ceramic Torx too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmikez Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I grew only using Phillip heads screws is that bad? But if I had to choose a side of who's gonna win I guess I would choose to Robertson square 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Glassey Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I would tend to think torx would win, what would the Germans use? John, Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk[emoji848] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kato Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I like Torx, Robertson is nice for electrical but I feel like Torx gives you the ability to really crank down. I've rounded out Robertsons quite a few times, but so far the only thing I can say about Torx is that I broke the tip off of a #10 once. Other than that Torx has always performed for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano123 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I prefer torx for deck screws, Phillips for drywall and my Kreg screws are Robertson. I like them in that order and I feel strongly that regular/flat head screws should no long be made!

JimboS1ice Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Still use Phillips drywall screws Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Some might laugh, but I've been switching away from drywall screws and began to use cement board screws on small projects. At first it seemed like overkill (ran out and was almost finish so I figured what the hell I'll try it) and it's superior in every way. The head is larger, it allows for a tighter fit without paper puncture, no chance of corrosion, and are available in all head styles to eliminate stripping (Robertson, Torx, Philips, etc...).

When I do new drywall installation I like use glue and screws to really keep the board snug, also keeps you away from nail pops in the future. As for paper puncture you don't need to have a drywall gun wth a cone to get good dimples with out puncture, there are various bits and bit holders that will give you the right depth for a good simple. Might had to look try some cement board screws though... Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
