Why they used those stupid square headed screws (I carry a square headed screw driver), I'll never know much less understand... but I digress. :h
All that info and I'm going to pick on this nit... :)
Square Drive screws (aka Robertson) are superior to Phillips and slotted. They don't cam out and you can stick the screw onto the driver and it'll usually stick.
I think Robertson is pretty much standard fair in Canada. Here, I first tried square drive screws from McFeely's. And have never gone back. ;)
Oh - nice job getting rid of the squeeks!
Makes sense but do they come in stainless steel?
They do come in stainless and are a bane to deck builders because the heads are forever stripping out- more so than Phillips. But that all matters not now because last time I went to pick up some screws our local hardware store had changed out everything to Torx! Now I have a hundred screw drivers and bits that will very soon be obsolete. Progress. :-)
