Would’ve been nice if you could done close up shots of the screwheads that way we can clearly see which screws or what

Amazing video. I am looking for screws to be used on solar panels installed on a remote solar farm... to make it harder for burglars to stole my solar panels. Thanks for sharing!!

Don't forget single use fasteners for prisons and phyc wards. We install security fencing in those places that bolt together. Once torqued the "hex" breaks off the nut.

I do drain cleaning ..and I’ve never had to use anything other than standard Philips #2 #3 ... until at a sams club store... the cleanout cover was on with a snake eyes scanner screw.. I had a bit for that.... but was the first time ever... I’ve cleaned probably 10, 000 drains and never needed it

For a license plate... I would use 4 different security screws...they are so small.. you’ll never see it... but you’ll ruin the day for the asshole trying to steal/ remove the plate

appreciate the video. i was looking around and couldn't find an answer to the question: would a security torx bit work for a standard torx screw head? Ypu very clearly answered that with a yes . thanks!

Hello, great video I had my license plate stolen 2 days before the 4th of July in front of the house, and I went to the local hardware and purchased the snake 🐍 eye screws
Unfortunately the course thread machine screw didn’t work, I have a German sedan and would like some advice on getting the correct thread snake eye screws ?

Do you know where I can pick up a Gulmite #10 tool? (reasonable price) Thanks!

[PeterGregg]

OMG all this trouble and we couldn't see the heads and most of the time the screw length or size. It's a shame.

[paulrayl]

What would you use for a 3 hole spanner screw? I can't find a bit for it anywhere.

Security screws are only security screws if you can't buy a set of "security bits" to undo them !

[elsaarmstrong-zpng]

Get a one sided riveting tool, you squeeze the trigger until the centre pin snaps! Only drilling the tough rivet will release it!

[charleshamilton]

You aren't showing the screw heads up close!

[scalamasterelectros]

finely i know how to steal those hotel tvs

[jimanderson]

I made a once use socket that had very little clearance on a counter sunk screw and then drilled the centre of the screw out.

For the one-way screw, if you bring an object with a REALLY powerful magnet, would that work?

[BRANDONP]

At 5:22 you called them 1" bits ? Pretty sure they are 1\4 " hex bits

Hello, I'm looking for screws for a laptop. A lenovo one. Thanks

This guy was subbing in for the regular guy. You should know your company's products well before attempting to showcase your products!

Would have been nice to have seen the heads of the screws
