## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the length of these screws suitable for half inch thick wood?**
A: 1/2 inch thick material requires a 1 inch screw length. go to kreg tool site and they have a chart for material thickness and screw length

**Q: will this work with Purebond 3/4 thicnk plywood or do I need the fine thread instead? Im about to buy the plywood also and need screws for cabinets**
A: Hello, 
Just as a heads up, this not an exterior screw. If your project is for indoors, this coarse thread screw is what you will need for the Purebond plywood. Thanks!

**Q: Would these be the correct screw type including size/length for joining 3/4" baltic birch plywood to 2x2 oak board? thanks**
A: If you are coming in from the bottom and fastening the frame to the bottom of the board, then you want the screw end (point end) to extend no more that 5/8" above the frame edge when the screw is all the way to the bottom (actually top!!) of the pocket.  I use the pocket drill to make vertical pockets in the center of the frame/cross-member boards rather than a side pocket.  Then I use 2 1/2" Kreg  screws to secure to the tops from the bottom up.  I do use wood glue too.  That way there is NO movement of the frame and tops.

But I use 1"x3" select pine boards for my cornhole board frames and cross-members.  They have precise dimensions, and this is lighter than oak would be or cutting the frame members from the baltic birch.

Cheers,  TQ

**Q: What is the thread pitch? I'm looking for a #8 with the pitch of a #10 (which would be 23)**
A: For the SML-C125 screw it is #8 Dia X 9 thread pitch.
