and replacing all the phillips head screws with socket-

I have yet to 'cam out' my first hex socket head
cap screw. Phillips are a different story however.

Several years back, I purchased some "guaranteed for life"
screwdrivers. I asked if the guarantee applied to the Philips drivers
since I would never use them to drive, only to remove Philips head
fasteners.
