Posidrive or slotted screws for woodwork?

They have to be 180 degrees out of phase.

Anybody who doesn't, hasn't got enough screwdrivers.

My favourite claw hammer is an Estwing, but that's always the one that strangely dissapears when working on a building site :-)

Our hinges are all coverd with multiple layers of pain anyway.

But yes, I'd use slotted screw on door furniture like handles and finger plates

I thought 100 years was the mark, so 1915 is now antique, but 1916 is not.

Still a quick web search reveals there seems to be no absolute definition beyond 'old, and desirable'

I guess that makes me one...;-)

Death to all the slits!

It's not so easy to dig paint out of a pozidrive head when you want to undo it.

In an older house and on show? Yes. Where they don't show, Pozidriv.

I'd have thought if restopring something or wanted it to look old. it'd be like me restoring a WWI radio and sticking LEDs on it to help tuning .

AFAIK the whole of the UK uses 3 phase power....

Trolls were never noted for having taste.
