Why do Americans still use slotted screws ?

Hey buddy , feeling better ?

 

Don't worry about Jello , he's pretty broken up over Whitney's death

 

That's good

 

Youre fucking hilarious! I'm an electrician, and if anything is built for the USA market, and then brought up to canada , csa approved .. it ALWAYS has slotted screws in it! WTF is up with that? I can't put a 3" wood screw in with a slotted head .... well, I could, but I'd sooner grab a #8 robbie and slam it in with my impact gun lol

 

Amen Brother

 

most common sizes are #8 and #6, #8 bit is too big to work on a #6, a #6 bit will work on a #8 but it's a loose fit and would be easy to round out the head of the screw.

 

You can get a one size smaller driver into the head but it won't really do much but spin in the head

 

I quite regularly put 1" #8 wood screws in with my #6... when I'm too lazy to put in another bit heh..

 

It works if you don't need too much pressure or encounter too much resistance

 

Was walking along the Long Beach Pier last night, you all would be happy to know that the boardwalk was done with Roberson screws!

 

There's been some growth in 2012

 

If P.L. Robertson and Henry Ford could have worked out an agreement, we would be using Robertson's screw alot more in the world.

Screws are useless, I construct all of my constructions with steel braided yarn

 

That's too fancy.

Why does your guv deny law-abiding citizens the right to defend themselves? (CCW)

I defend myself just fine thanks

 

According to Oz, he always has had the screw figured out ("not really a problem as much as an observation"). Of course, if true, that means he's spent days ranting about something which really isn't a problem or obstacle for him. Typical Canadian.
