Love it. As a Canadian, I never knew that Robertson screws were pretty much unique to here now. I mean, I did know that their inventor was Canadian, but I just assumed that being a superior product to Phillips screws (and infinitely better than slot-type screws), they would have found worldwide acceptance. They're just...normal here, available everywhere, used by pretty much every contractor at least some of the time. Of the three main types of screw heads, they're by far my favourite (it's crazy how something over a hundred years old can be so high quality even today). Also, apparently, P. L. Robertson had a really good reason why he was unwilling to license his screws to Ford. He had entered such an agreement with an English licensee company whose parent company intentionally drove the licensee into bankruptcy so that they could buy the English rights at a reduced price from the trustee. Robertson spent a fortune getting the rights back, and from that point on, he refused to license his design to anyone else, which made Ford look elsewhere. That he went with the VASTLY inferior Phillips shows how desperate he was to have the supply chain under his control (which is weird...if the product is worth it, why not just sign a contract requiring Robertson to supply him with X amount of screws a year, for Y amount of years, at Z price, thus ensuring that he would always have access to what he needed?). As good as Robertson screws are however, they take 2nd place overall to Torx in my opinion, which are really quite wonderful to use. I've been using Torx wood screws for a few years now on various projects, and if I have the option, I'll always choose them.

In germany theres basically 4 types of screw heads: Hex, Nut, Plus, and Minus. Plus, Minus, and Hex are pretty much what you expect, hex screws usually being used in manufacturing, and nut screws have heads shaped like nuts so you can use the tool youd usually use for nuts to apply them instead of a screwdriver. And from there, the differences are based on what the screw is supposed to be used for, for example, there are your run of the mill screws, theres cutting screws used on sheet metal to cut their own thread, theres ones with elongated, thin shafts made so that you can apply pull to them, which is useful in applications with a lot of pressure present thats trying to force parts apart, etc.

There was also an aircraft that was only filled half full because they mixed up the imperial and the metric. The plane ran out of full half way into the trip and crashed.

I don't recall the Apple // series computers having odd screws. The Macintosh introduced in 1984, on the other hand...Did. Steve Jobs did not want the tinkerers who played with cards and the like on the Apple //'s to play with the innards of the Macintosh.

Engineers think they have it rough. Try being an aircraft mechanic. I have an entire drawer in my already-bloated toolbox dedicated entirely to driver bits. Also, pro-tip: If you apply valve-grinding compound to your bit, it causes cam-out to happen at a much higher torque. Combined with significant down-force, you can break loose even the most stubborn screws. Important in aviation, as all our hardware is engineered with much tighter tolerances, and we heavily employ the use of self-locking nuts, threadlocker, and other sealing and safety methods. Still, Phillips and its kin completely suck. If I had a dollar for every rounded screw I've had to cut out with a drill, I could quit being a mechanic, and retire to a tropical island. Torx aren't much better either. Having to torque a full cockpit window's worth of the things completely destroys a good bit. Best hope your company stocks good ones, because you'll be replacing them often.

torx screws are the devil, so are people who sell torx screws and people who sell torx screw drivers. you want to know how to improve a torx screw? easy, weld a hex nut onto the head. hex screws are the only screw the world needs. everything else is just proprietary bullshit.

Great video. Tough subject, but you managed not to *screw* it up.

Personally, most English ("Freedom") units are varying degrees of superior to Metric ones, with few exceptions. One of the best examples of this is Fahrenheit's absolute and complete superiority to Celsius. In other cases, though, like mile vs. kilometer, there is no difference.

I live in the states, but when I went up to Canada I was standing on a relative’s porch, and then for some reason I looked at one of the screws and went “wait, that’s not right. What on earth? What is this?!” I had never really seen Robertson screws before, except perhaps in electronics, but even that is a rarity. It genuinely shocked me, in large part because my toolbox wasn’t Canadian-Compatible now...

It really is the best screw. Great torque, doesn't slip, doesn't fall off the bit, easier to insert than a torx or philips. I'm shocked because my whole life up until today I thought it was the standard outside of Canada too, but wow apparently nobody's heard of it.
