Brass oval head wood screws for period-correct work
Drive a modern Phillips screw into old work and it stands out. These are slotted brass oval head wood screws, the kind of fastener that looks right in a restoration or any job where the screw shows.
They are built to join two pieces of wood. The smooth shank lets the screw pull both boards together for a tight join while it helps keep the wood from pulling apart or splitting. The standard point needs a pilot hole, so drill first and they set clean. Good for cabinets, playsets, and framing.
