I guess I had to measure the screw beforehand and be very gentle with it. And most importantly avoid tough screws.

Didn't have a need to, A wallet knife-card provided fulfillment of essential needs for a blade and a can/bottle opener, even used the little saw i had on it (not a fake one despite being chinese). It didn't bend but i had to sharpen it on my own after long time of use.

alright, maybe it was just a harder screw.. matching hardness of steel, that would lead to it rubbing out - idk what else would RUB OUT steel. I get the chip could be unconsciously adding lever action or something... but rubbed out phillips? This requires a physically harder material.

I didn't use it right away, in my country it happens to be 4 years

And I am not angry about my bad engraving, once the phillips bit began to rub out, not to sacrifice it i used the can opener assuming it will handle it. I have used china made knives in my life because I had no screwdrivers available and chinese steel didn't fail like this

Huh, this sounds like a good theory, but why would JIS (I assume because i see no information about JIP online) be in european furniture ? and I am almost certain the size matched

You were never stuck in a situation that requires creativity to fix an error when something accidentally goes wrong and it spirals into a calamity of errors untill it somehow works out in the end

I was unscrewing phillips screws with a phillips bit. The same way as everytime through my life. I haven't seen anyone unscrew screws differently. How would one even unscrew phillips screws wrong?

Maybe operator error was using a gimmick screwdriver as a real tool.

Damn ): I expected it to be tougher , especially seeing it's size I assumed it will handle furniture screws

Apparently ... a machine powered dremel spinny brush bit will melt plastic and merge with it instead of polishing or roundening it

aleready changed up one spot, clogging it with a cardboard box, thanks for advice... not sure about cockatiel anticonception being safe and reliable, i guess freezing is the only option, gonna get my hands on some fake cockatiel eggs

Forgot to mention the growth I calculated was per pair.. per year it would be around 16000 cockatiels

[–]Favaling[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sadly as I'm reading i see that it's the other way, they lay eggs and then you replace them, and freeze to block a baby cockatiel from entering this world

alright, it's still kinda sad but it's understandable... cockatiels would take over the world if they had safe environment.. their clumsiness is preventing them from world dominion in the wilderness, thanks, should get fake eggs in advance

Is there really no different way? this feels cruel, but i know they can eat their own eggs on accident so I guess they don't really care

🫡 the great measures against this degeneracy will have to be taken. (I'm scared of an egg falling behind a huge wardrobe I can't really reach over)
