Been away,
I need a screw to go into wood that has a machine thread on the other end. Diameter and pitch has not be a concern yet but would need to be about 5/16-3/8" minimum.
First need to know if I can create it.
Been to the hardware store and HD but couldn't find anything to fit my need. They have what im talking about but very small diameter 3/32, 3/16, #8, #10.

Here in the states, we have a screw and screwdriver that is called squarehead. After learning sometime ago the Canadians call this fastener a Robertson after their Canadian inventor. Since then, I decided to call it by the Canadian name out of respect for our friends up north.Another interesting thing I have learnt on this forum. I had to look up 'lag bolt' as I had never heard the name before. I now know; in the UK they tend to be called 'coach screws'.
