Hi Bill,
Nothing really, but I have a very strong preference for Philips head
screws, primarily because the screw driver can’t easily slide out of the slot as
with slotted screws. The down side of Philips screws is that both the
screw head and the screw driver are more easily damage than slotted screw heads
ad screw drivers, but that’s not a significant problem for me, especially with
the small screws we typically use in our modeling.
Pax,
Ralph

is wrong with slotted screws, I have 400 of them?! Well truthfully I have
probably used 100 from that 400 screw order. Bill Welch
