You can’t be telling me that! I just discovered my love of v necks!

My experience with puffers puts their personality in the realm of “What’s this? Will it be easy to kill?” At which point if the answer is no, they lose interest lol

The surface area of engagement on robertson is one of, if not the highest. The bit will bind on the the tapered sides before it touches the bottom of the hole in the screw, so you always get full engagement and 0 rotational slop (provided your bit and screw are actually in line with each other.) Torx more often than not has some rotational slop between the two, and phillips almost always does. Another nice thing about robertson specifically for hand tools is the sizes have standardized colour coding, so you grab the green handled screwdriver for #1, red for #2 and black for #3. It’s only brands that care more about the looks of their products than usability that don’t have at least a coloured ring on the handle of their drivers. I’m pretty sure torx has colour coding, but it’s nowhere near as common, especially seeing as there are so many sizes.

The only reason robertson isn’t the standard in NA is because the inventor was a moron and wouldn’t license the production to ford

Look at any comparison that includes robertson and it wins every time, and if the reviewer is american they’re surprised every time. Canadian fastener aisles are 95% robertson 2% torx and 3% hex because lag bolts and such. Only screws included in other hardware are anything other than those

RS > ME any day. I’m doing stoneblock 4 right now, which doesn’t have RS, and they’ve added dark mode to this version of AE, which is nice
