Is it worth buying expensive screws?
Something tells me these might be a bit too expensive for general use:

Is it worth buying expensive screws?
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Stephen Gower saying something like: Something tells me these might be a bit too expensive for general use: http://kiameku.tumblr.com/post/67645...l-length-27-cm http://kiameku.tumblr.com/post/67643...detail-2008-18 (aka http://bit.ly/c3l7tf and http://bit.ly/c3l7tf ) Crapotastic! |

You'd think they'd mount it in a block of polished teak with embossed brass and a velvet lining. -- Tim Watts Managers, politicians and environmentalists: Nature's carbon buffer. |

You'd think they'd mount it in a block of polished teak with embossed brass and a velvet lining. You have to marvel at the crap some people come up with though... For starters they look no better than a bog standard pasivated posi screw. Secondly gold or white gold would seem to have exactly all the wrong attributes desirable for a screw anyway! Soft, ductile, marks easily, would probably twist off in the wood! and that diamond in the middle won't help locate the screwdriver. mark |
