Cutting down flat head screws ie those on sockets

[ban-all-sheds]

What I'm not missing is that over and over again GaryMo said "why would I file the screw if it didn't need it so having filed it why would I need to use a nut", completely ignoring my repeated attempts to get him to see that I was proposing it as an alternative.

Nor have I missed him becoming abusive because of his unwillingness to read.

Abusive? Thats rich coming from you! You offered it as an alternative but as i said, i'll continue doing it my way.

BAS, I have to side with Gary on this one..
your posts read to me ( and aparently to gary ) that you were trying to influence his way of doing things..
you repeatedly told him that if he put nuts on that he didn't need to dress the screw..
you then shouted at him in big red letters... which he took as an angry gesture..

I presented it as an alternative.

I repeatedly told him that using a nut was an alternative way to clean up the end of the screw.

you then shouted at him in big red letters... which he took as an angry gesture..

I tried to make what I wrote as easy to spot as possible, because he kept on acting as if I was saying that you should use a nut as well as a file.
