where the hell do you hey your Robertson screws here? I've found the bits but can't find the screw for love or money?

[@TheWoodKnight]

Google or bing for "robertson screws australia", the first result is ScrewIt, which is the supplier I use who import the proper robertson bits, and supply Timbecon/Carbatec.

[@79DJB]

Cost?

[@TheWoodKnight]

Go to the website and see for yourself?

+Paul Jenkins found it. gold
goos price too. ive got a heap of Phillips, but got the kreg k5 2 years ago and fell in love with robertson. really didficult to strip. So much easier.

[@TheWoodKnight]

Very difficult to strip, I've only done that once with an impact driver. The advantage of the (proper) robertson screws compared to the stuff at bunnings is the robertson are made from steel, rather than cheese like the bunnings ones, so its even difficult to bend them (comparatively)

[@benniecrowe]

Did you have any issues with wood movement with these brackets?

[@TheWoodKnight]

None whatsoever. They're essentially the defacto standard in Australia for wooden beds, so plenty of people would have run into that issue before me (if it was an issue) :)

I wish I were in Australia
