[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 2697311, member: 550915"] ^^^Yep, but you need to find them with the unthreaded section as long as your wood is thick or countersink them to the point that the unthreaded part goes all the way through the first piece for it to do any good. And if you can't manage to put a screw within 1" of the end of a piece of wood without it splitting, you're doing something wrong. You're either overtorqueing it, using too small a predrill or you're not using a countersink bit to countersink the screw head and relying on the screw to countersink itself. [/QUOTE]
