Are you talking about the square hole (as opposed to a slot or the
Phillips)?? If so, Lowes sells a #2 bit and I have purchased a
screwdriver with a #2 end; my Royale (Coachman outfitted) also used a #1
bit (square hole). I ended up buying a kit that had all the various bits
(torqx, hex, etc) so I could get the #1 bit.

Our coach was finished by Coachman, most of the screw heads were square, not the
true CLUTCH style.

Just another way that Canadians can drive you crazy. When we shipped a bunch of crates to a company in Texas we put them together with Robertson screws and a week later got a call from the company cursing us, we had to send the a couple of screw drivers ,to be able to unpack the equipment this was about 20 years ago.

unobtanium
expensium
vaporium
imagium
unicornium
I think the only one that really has a Wiki entry is unobtanium.
You can't get it here, it's expensive, or is does not really exist.
FWIW, I really like the last one (says the guy who runs "Monoceros Ventures"). Just stick one horn on that goat, and you're ready to go. The magic comes out the tailpipe<G>

The first reference I ever remember to unobtainium was in reference to
Harley Davidson Evolution engines. It seems the cylinders were made from a
special alloy that was very expensive and difficult to obtain.
