>Pat,

I believe I've seen oval handled screwdrivers in Garrett Wade's catalog--but don't rely on my memory, I never do.

For all things screwey (sorry, I couldn't resist) I go to McFeenies', or MacFeeny's, or McFeelies, or MacFunnies, or something like that. They will be overjoyed to sell you drills, drill bits, drivers, screws, pilot drills, and much else you don't yet realize you need.

>Mildly obsessive on the subject of square-drive screws (not strictly, I understand, Robertson's, as not tapered). They list some interesting products, though I have yet to be tempted to buy.

Square-drive screws are one step further removed from graceful-looking than Phillips screws, but they are efficient.

>Lee Valley has a nice looking set of screwdrivers in a rounded triangle format. They do have the square head drivers as part of the group. I hope that the link works.

>McFeely's...It's been said before on these pages, but square drive screws + brace = a great combination.

For appearance screws, LV is great. Their whole hardware section is excellent. The only thing I can remember missing on is oiled-bronze hinges (real or steel facsimile).

I always find Bob's woodworking offerings to be thorough and very well illustrated, and I like his specific boatbuilder insights. I feel that generations of woodworking are being passed on. Freely given on the internet, they could easily justify publication in book or video.
