Screwing wood to wood1
Start by choosing a screw with a countersunk head that is long enough to pass through the piece you are fixing, and halfway through the piece to which you are fixing it. The screw head will be flush with the surface once the screw has been driven in. Screws come in different diameters called gauge numbers, but for most jobs you will need only two. 8 gauge screws up to 50mm long will be thick enough for most jobs; use a thicker 10 gauge screw up to 75mm long for heavier-duty fixings.
