Firing up a fireplace after last winter's use and sitting all summer can cause all sorts of unwanted problems ranging from red eyes and coughing to air pollution and carbon monoxide poisoning. Cook on back burners. Keep pot handles turned in and keep anything hot away from counter edges. Trash compactors are dangerous if not properly closed and locked. There are ways to decide which fasteners, like nuts and bolts and screws, to use.
Screws have greater holding power than nails and different threads for various materials.
Screws can be driven in with power tools but nuts and bolts are stronger yet. They are easy to remove with little damage. Nuts and bolts can be power-tightened or easily removed the same way. All rights reserved.
