 Crosshead screws - BobbyG
OK I will admit it, I am thick!

But can someone explain why there is not one standard for crosshead screws and therefore only one type of screwdriver needed to fit?

I am fed up having to work my way through my screwdriver bits to find the one that fits a particular screw.

So why are there different ones and what is the easiest way to see which bit fits which screw?
