raesewell Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I have a set of Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) screwdrivers but quite often change the fasteners where possible to hex or allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if they used the incorrect driver for them which some probably do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
