Hey Arnie,
I prefer the square drive decking screws for screwing down the blocks on my trailer.
 This really helps the engines stay where I want them to.
The square drive doesn't strip out like the Phillips drive ones do.

Hi Dave,

Those screws are also excellent for screwing 4x2 cleats to your trailer deck to
help keep engines from moving around.  I like #10 x 3" long.

I just thought, what the hell, lets say something about ENGINES for a change.

See ya,  Arnie
