Hex is the perfect blend of convenience, and asthetics. Just as at home on a bicycle, as it is on a chair leg. Machined, or self tapping... you really just can't beat the hex.
Just a bit of a silly observation….. I’m a fan of watching shows like House Hunters, Property Virgins, My First Sale and My First Place on HGTV. I’ve noticed that a lot of the houses they show in the US, even the new builds, don’t have knobs on any of the cabinets in the kitchen or bathrooms. What’s the deal?
Asked the wife, She said it is a cheap and appeals to everyone. When you look at the kitchen you don't think, "I'm going to have to change those god-awfule knobs"
