Default How deep into the wood should a screw go?

Just a quick question and forgive me if it annoys you, how deep into
the wood should a screw go? A 1/3 of the width of the wood? 2/3s?



The correct answer is "deep enough".

All depends on what you're screwing to what. You're looking for a one
size fits all answer and there is no such thing.
