We include the 100 screws (5040-CSP-C), 100 white decorative caps (5041-CAP-C), appropriate drill bit (MS-5040), and 1" and 2" Pozi-drive bits (HPD-0210 & HPD-0220) so that all you need to supply is a bit of Melamine (or particle board for more utilitarian projects), a cordless or electric drill, and a spot or two of glue.

        Comments about 5 x 40mm Connecting Screw Starter Kit:

        Next to pocket screw techonoly, this has to be one of the easist and strongest ways to build anything made of melamine and or particle board. The drill bit is a step drill bit which helps to reduce the chipping of the material and keep the hole clean while drilling. The only gripe I have are the driver bits, I wish they were longer. I know this is a "starter kit" but I also wish this kit came with more screws! But I guess thats why McFeely's sent me a new catalog with my purchase.

          Comments about 5 x 40mm Connecting Screw Starter Kit:

          I have many sets of bookshelves from a leading manufacture of RTA furniture. Most have held up fine, but one set must have been loaded off-balance since one shelf collapsed dropping its contents on the next shelf down which in turn collapsed. Not wanting to discard these shelves, I searched for a way to repair them. McFeelys to the rescue! Within a few hours of receiving my kit, my bookshelves were back in service, better than ever. As I add more sets, I will use the addtional fasteners in this kit to pro-actively secure the shelves.

                • Joining MDF face to edge

                Comments about 5 x 40mm Connecting Screw Starter Kit:

                I use these to fasten MDF face to edge. They give me a consistent, tight mechanically sound joint every time. You will need to keep the fasteners at least 1-1/8" away from the edges of the piece you are fastening into.
