Over the last day, I've made some similar enquiries with similar woodworking groups in the U.S. to which I belong and which include a number of professional furniture makers and contractors.
The feedback that I have had is that other than slotted screws, Phillips is by far the most common type of screw in use in the U.S. in the professional and consumer markets.
Pozidriv is known about by a few but the perception, right or wrong is of little real value in comparison to Phillips. ~Some of the individuals were aware of Torx screws and a few had bought them - the improved resilience to cam-out was appreciated.
No because in what I said, I was not wrong. The point was made tentatively and as a question. By definition, only an answer or a statement can be right or wrong.
As I said before, the fact that it's quite possible that these self same people could well have used pozidrive without realising as a Phillips driver will fit any pozidrive screw of equal head #. Also, your original comment was in relation to the manufacture and sale of pozidrive bits in the USA so trying to limit the discussion to woodworking is silly - woodworkers are not the only people who use screwdrivers!
Implied? Why do I get the feeling you just read what you want to, regardless of what is actually written?
Where did he say that?
To me it sounded like an expression of surprise that the USA made set had pozi bits, when they are not often found on the domestic USA market. i.e. A remark of "oh, that is unusual".
Does it really require 15 posts of deep analysis from you Jetty?
