Default Fancy a screw?

I'm drifting back to the more traditional cut of the Quicksilver, I
think it works well in the shorter sizes, a 4x25 turbogold is all spike
& no grip for the first 5mm. I definitely agree on Uno's as being a bit
of a breakthrough in PB fixing although I'd go for longer Fischer stuff
into brick.


I must be even more traditional, using proper woodscrews; a
countersunk clearance hole in the upper bit of wood and a pilot hole
in the lower.
Unless I'm doing loads of screws for a rough job, I use a proper
cabinet screwdriver of an appropriate size.
