Review on Brass Coated Phillips Screws with Extended Length Threads by Steve Hardy

I'm so tired of the screws I bought from local hardware stores snapping or breaking in half. I've been working with hard cherries and two out of three screws were garbage. Until I tried these. I've made several Christmas gifts at my wood shop and none of these brass screws have given me any trouble. I still have about half of the pack left, but I will order more. Screws I bought locally? Already kicked out.
