Screwing
June 12th, 2008 by Bell
A 1 lb box of 2-inch deck screws is sufficient to screw down ONE 3/8 inch 4×8 piece of plywood.
Screws around the perimeter = 3 inches apart
Screws through the middle = 6 inches apart
So- if you have 10 boards to screw down, buy more than 3 boxes of screws.

Umm, I thought you were going somewhere else with that title.
I’m with Cathy. I thought it was a honeymoon reference.
Good luck with the floor too.
BTW, did anyone suggest that you countersink and puddy over the screw heads?
Don’t know that its that needful. We got foam underlayment for the kickass flooring sitting in our den acclimating to the mighty climate of the awesome casa- uh - bennu, so the screwheads ain’t gonna screw with nuttin.
