Spent $80 on a JIS screwdriver set and my Nikon F2 repair went smooth for once

I kept stripping screws on old Japanese cameras with regular phillips bits. Picked up a Vessel JIS set from Amazon for about 80 bucks after a tip from a guy at the Portland camera swap. Took apart a seized winder on my F2 and the screws came out perfect, no damage at all. Anyone else switch over to JIS and notice a big difference?

Yeah I used to think regular phillips was fine for old Nikons. Tried a JIS set last month and now I get why everyone raves about them.

Yeah JIS is a total game changer.
