Recently repairing a garden chair I made some years ago, I replaced cross head screws with traditional slot headed ones. Much easier to remove.
I'm also questioning use of battery powered tools - new hedge trimmer is more powerful, cheaper and no battery to replace when it loses capacity over time.
I like hand tools anyway. My favourite is a turning saw bought in an antique shop. I frequently use it. Stronger than a coping saw and easier to control than a jigsaw.
