Every single screw should be torque. The alternative is madness.

yep when the impact finishes going brrrrr

>Flathead for machining applications
>Hex for heavier applications

Other than that yeah. Things like Philips head deck screws are absolutely retarded

I thought so too until a couple days when trying to fix a screw to a brick and the bit kept slipping. Had to buy impact bits afterwards.

Square and torx are my two favorites, with square being what I use because it stays on the bit better and I find that more beneficial than torx being almost impossible to strip.

inb4 the autistic guy starts screeching about calling it robertson instead of square

Looks cooler than a plain ceiling. I make a shitload installing them, and I think they add a lot to a room.

Bro why did you not try to color match the ridge '''beam'''
>>
>>2964083
why put a light through the center of the """"beam""""?
>>
>>2964083
that's raw wood, after stain it did match
>>2964086
because the customer wanted it
>>
>>2963913
i no longer care since i have a billion quarter in bit kits.
what i do care about is flat heads.
flat heads should never be used on anything, ever, under any circumstances. they had their purpose when screwmaking was primitive, but that is no longer the case.

>because the customer wanted it
well your customer is an idiot. lemme guess, 59 year old fat boomer with 3 boats and won't stop telling """"stories""""", possibly about his time in the """""corp"""""?
