| Robertson screws/screwdrivers
I know that Robertson screws/screwdrivers are pretty common in Canada, but I'm curious how readily available they are outside of Canada? Some info on them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robertson_screwdriver |

Good to know. Are they sold at all the major hardware stores, etc.? The reason I ask is I build tubers and often trade/sell with people in the US. I've been using M3 hardware for panel mounts, but #0 Robertson 4-40 screws and nuts are much cheaper and look just as good as hex drives. However, since I do deal with people in the US, I don't want to give them a tuber they can't get the panel off of |
