Hi - can you turn off HTML posting? It makes your message nearly

See what I mean?
Conformat screws are specifically desinged for this. Would suggest
augmenting with glue (Titebond works well)

really matters much, it's doom alone that counts. And the one eyed

Check out http://www.mcfeelys.com/subcat.asp?subcat=20.1.1.2
Mcfeely's offers a starter kit with screws, step drill, plugs and drive bit.
I'v done a number of shop cabinet projects and office printer stands using
these and have been very happy. Do be aware thy use a very large drive bit.
It's the same kind of bit you see for deck screws.
