Well that was a very "Turkish"* statement. Bold and wrong. One cannot generalize in that way. And for sure Bronce would be the better material on wood!


* should say that my yards are in Turkey, before I´m named a nationalist.

Torx is a perfectly OK system, and is fundamentally a fairly good design IMHO. Except that there are 24 standard sizes, each of which can be found in conventional, external, tamper-resistant, five-point tamper resistant.... I have over 50 different Torx bits in my toolbox, and have never (seriously, never) picked the right one on the very first try.
Whereas good old Robertsons almost always fit one of four common driver sizes (coded as yellow, green, red and black) which can be easily distinguished without having to actually try all four drivers.
The only reason they're not more common outside of Canada is that the original inventor was extremely strict about licensing rights (after getting royally screwed over by a foreign partner).

Hi, I start to get a picture of the sitiuation and I want to thank everybody.

But, when you say Bronze do you mean silicon bronze or regular bronze?

Silicon bronze seems to be a popular choice for fasteners. Everyone has their own preference of course. Be careful of something called "manganese bronze" that isn't actually bronze at all- it's really a kind of brass, and occasionally turns into a spongy, porous mess of copper when used below the waterline.

As Matt said, silicon bronce. You may as well look for "Monel", sometimes easier to get your hand on and a perfect choice.

Have success!

No, My workshop is near Dudullu region, far from Tuzla. I can built up to 10 mt (30 ft) boats. If somebody needs longer I will move to site.
Best regards.
