Absolutely........ having said that, though, most wood screws used to be all slotted. We're talking 30+ years back. One had no choice but to be good with a slotted screwdriver. A good screwdriver, properly made and tipped was a must. Then came the Robertson, a Canadian invention. Along with philips, frearson, torx, and others, it made slotted head screws a thing of the past. In any case, the right size screwdriver is ever so important.
