In order to buy a good set of screw drivers, it is important to understand the pros and cons of the geometry behind it. With a bit of understanding, it’s possible to look at a screw driver and tell if it was built to turn screws or if it was built to sell cheap.

Whenever critics dare venture outside their lane, they’re shot down and told to mind their own business.

You might be better off pulling the whole engine just to replace a head gasket in such a situation. Also, in some cases, the nuts atop the studs may interfere with the valvetrain (like rocker stands) or require some machining to clear the heads themselves.

Quickly becoming a favorite of builders and serious DIYers, the Torx screw—sometimes called the star screw—features a 6-point recessed star tip in sizes that range from 0.031” to 0.81” and are designated by “T” numbers (from T1 to T100). Common building sizes are T15 and T25, and, whatever screw size, there’s a corresponding Torx screwdriver or screwdriver bit to fit.

With the mainstays of consumer banking (automobiles, electronics, travel and mortgages) again on the uptick, coupled with factors such as a consolidated banking sector with fewer players and the opportunities presented by CPEC, the fundamentals of the Pakistani economy show enough promise to keep banks interested.

Consider the opposite dilemma: You want to install a U.S. solid-shaft knob on a metric solid-shaft pot—Tele dome knobs on an Epiphone Les Paul, for example. In this scenario, the hole in the knob is too big for the shaft. No worries: You can buy a brass sleeve developed for this specific purpose. Slide it onto the metric shaft and the U.S. knob will fit perfectly.
