Voice of experience: Do NOT to trust Rockler screws for critical work,
like
screwing adjacent cabinet face frames together!
Rockler screws are barely a cut above those you buy at the Borg's and,
while
OK for many shop tasks, they simply will not perform like a quality
screw.
Wow - not my experience at all. Were all the ones you used from a
single batch?
Yeah ... one batch for the last five custom kitchens ... hardly likely.
Re-read the first three words you quoted above.
I can't say how Rockler's screws compare to McFeeley's, as I haven't
used McF's,
The more you get into woodworking the more you realize that, for the most
part, Rockler branded items are mostly chinese/cheap and pretty much suck,
particularly on what can be considered woodworking "supply" items.
You admitted that you haven't tried McFeely's screws, a requirement in order
to make objective judgments. Give them a try and your love affair with
Rockler screws will evaporate, guaranteed.
