HWT Archimedes was created by James Grieshaber and published by Hamilton Wood Type Foundry. HWT Archimedes consists of 5 styles and household bundle choices. p > Archimedes is a wood type style in some cases understood as Mansard. This particular version was brought back to life as a wood type font style by Virgin Wood Type. The variation with screw heads in the design was initially seen in 1879 by the William H. Page Co. This brand-new digital version is a synchronised release with Virgin Wood Type and includes a range of styles including the basic screw head option-plus a Phillips head, Hex/Allen Wrench head, and even the vexing Apple ® pentalobe tamper reistant star screw.

The result is a strong and industrial font style that has a specific "joie de vivre" and "bling" mindset. Not for every designer, but you know this is for YOU!

As a reward, the screwheads themselves are accessible by means of a glyph scheme, so you can put the screws to Comic Sans, or any other font, if you so desire.
