Torx screws are great. I picked up a box of 4 x 40s a while back, thinking they were the usual cross-heads, and had a wee swear when I got them home & discovered my mistake. However, a set of bits I'd bought 20 years ago because it included sockets also had a few Torx bits in it as well, and one of them fitted.
I've just finished a small stand for some new machines where I used about 50 of them. Every single one went in without a hitch - none of the jump'n'judder you get when a cross-head bit rides out of the screw-head towards the end of the drive. By way of contrast, I had to use cross-heads to fasten a sheet of ply down, and out of a dozen screws only 4 or 5 didn't judder.
Going to change all my stock now.
