I agree, and do this with everything I refurbish.
Does anyone know Why manufacturers use these odd fasteners ?
What benefit do they provide over Philips ?
It's not the type of screw, but what the screw was made of or what the torx/allen bit was made of. I have allen and torx screws on some of my stuff and they have never stripped out, but some have stripped just looking at em. That's why I replace most of these screws with good, machine quality screws.
