Matthias Wandel returns with a giant wood screw and nut
Actually I'd call that thing a bolt, not a screw. To me screws have points and hold things together via friction. Bolts don't have points and use nuts to hold things together via compression and shear strength.
Then again, I'm an engineer and take these things more seriously.
