[QUOTE="Blkrvrbart, post: 451998, member: 23509"] I am serious about stripping out the hole in the decking. As soon as you get through the decking material, before you cut into the framing, stop your drill( or driver) , REVERSE IT, and “strip out” the hole in the decking. After you do that, set your drill or driver to forward and tighten the screw down without stripping the hole in the framing or snapping off the screw. This will tighten down the decking to the framing without leaving a gap or breaking the screw. It takes less time and tools than predrilling. It’ll come easy by the fourth screw. [/QUOTE]
