Which cut line is correct? Don’t know, both sides are screwed twisted beyond belief. This is the start cut, the first 2.5" inches are for kid’s projects… Another chance at loosing a finger or two. The worse part is that these were the best picks of the day. Every other 2X6 (1.5x5.5 for the non-retarded among us) were worse splintered, bent, twisted. They need to dry the wood slowly in a well spaced stack. I wouldn’t wish any of this wood on anyone for anything.
It’s an interresting difference. Where I am, you can’t get construction screws with phillips. I don’t know when we switched, but I started as a carpenter apprentice about 10 years ago, and back then everything was torx.
Damn. Where do you live? In general. I’m in the Minnesota, and it’s almost easier to find Robertson screws, because Canada.
Robertson is always the correct answer.
