[sf-lug] the upcoming installfest - screwdriver (phillips #?)

[Michael Paoli]

Hmmmm, would't a phillips #1 generally be more fitting (literally) for such?

I'd tend to think mostly #1, and perhaps occassionally a #2 or #0, and
sometimes something fitted for the proper size nutdriver ... and perhaps
other tools, but even more rarely called for.
