Last week bought 20 3/8 lag screws from TSC to bolt some PT yellow pine together. drilled 1/4 inch pilot holes,used a 3/8 ratchet to twist them in.
nearly half twisted up before getting seated. Were the pilot holes too small? ALL the bolts twisted off under the head where the threading ended. It
was typical yellow pine;nails drove in comfortably. What went wrong???????
