I'll bet I have 70 flat blade screwdrivers in my tool cabinet and I'm lucky if I can find one Phillips Head screwdriver. I know I have one in the TT but that one stays there. Why can't they put together a set of all Phillips Head screwdrivers. It really upsets me!!

I know, you say go to Home Depot or Lowes or Menards and just buy a Philips Head screwdriver. Not! It's the principle of the thing about screwdriver sets.
Many many years ago I was making a wooden "Z" door with slotted screws a carpenter friend was watching and he said that's not the way to do that, "OK show me" he walked over and pounded them in with a hammer! Doors still up. Now that is the way to drive slotted screws.
