Last week we started having a look at various different screws in the edge grain of MDF, all screwed in to the wood without using a pilot hole. This week we're repeating the tests but this time using a 2mm pilot hole for each screw. I'll then take you through the results and chat about my chosen 'go to' screw for the edge of MDF board - and it's not the TurboGold 4.5 x 45mm any more! If you're in part of the world where you can't get hold of TurboGold screws, you're looking for 4.0 x 50mm carbon steel wood screws with a self-drilling tip and a rifled shank. They're yellow zinc passivated but other than that there's nothing special about them.
