[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8894496, member: 675210"] When screwing into wood, if you don't pre-drill (pilot) holes and you just screw in the screws you can split the wood and ruin the screw hole. Use a drill bit just smaller than the screw and you should have no issues. Pilot Hole - "A pilot hole is a small hole drilled before inserting a screw or nail, typically to prevent splitting, ensure proper screw placement, and make driving screws easier, especially in hardwoods or when screwing near the edge of a board" [/QUOTE]
