- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

What makes torx crap? Unlike hex, you can still screw them in if your screwdriver is at an angle, which can be really convenient if you're working at odd angles.
They make hex keys with ball ends to handle that
Yeah but with torx I don't need an extra bit to handle that, it's just a built in feature of the bit. It also doesn't answer why torx apparently sucks? "Hex can also do that if you have a special bit" doesn't make torx any worse.
Why would it be a separate bit? Most people I know just have a set of these
My guess is this is a situation where someone can never find the right size screwdriver
Robertson head screws are the second most popular fastener people pay me money to remove for them after they screw it up. Torx is third.
