Phillips driver bits.

phillips_drive(size, shaft, l)

Creates a model of a phillips driver bit of a given named size. These are my best guess reverse-engineered measurements of the tip diameters of various phillips screwdriver sizes.

Args	What it does
size	The size of the bit. "#1", "#2", or "#3"
shaft	The diameter of the drive bit's shaft.
l	The length of the drive bit.

Example:

xdistribute(10) {
   phillips_drive(size="#1", shaft=4, l=30);
   phillips_drive(size="#2", shaft=6, l=30);
   phillips_drive(size="#3", shaft=6, l=30);
}
