I was surprised since it was a craftsman screwdriver. Glad it was covered it would be about $6 to replace it. When I handed it to the guy at the counter, I told him not to touch the tip. His only comment was Oh MY! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Larry Stansifer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, September 22, 2008 5:26 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] cabinet screws
WOW... NO */^?... I've seen a driver mess up a gazillion screws but seldom have I seen a screw mess up a driver bit. I would bet a cold beer on a tool tempering issue. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lenny McHugh Sent: Monday, September 22, 2008 1:14 PM To: handyman-blind Subject: [BlindHandyMan] cabinet screws A year or so ago I purchased some cabinet screws that have both a square drive and Phillips screw head. I first thought it was great that I could use either type of screw driver. I normally prefer the square drive. Anyway the other day I was working on something that had Phillip head drywall screws. I lost one of the screws and grabbed a cabinet screw. When I tightened the screw with the Phillips head I destroyed the screwdriver. although it was the correct size most of the screw driver went into the square hole leaving only a small part to grip the screw. It really mangled the tip of the screwdriver. Thankfully it was one that had a lifetime replacement. I will be careful never to use the Phillips drive with these screws again.
