Now Im no builder, not yet anyway, but I am fascinated by the techniques used in early times to construct firearms. While I was browsing another forum, I found a very interesting discussion on screws used in those days, and thought that I would share. Of particular interest to me where the, for lack of  better term, "screw-pins" that are discussed about halfway down the forum.
