My choice in screws for this application would be what I call "cabinet
screws" They have a conventional countersink head, a straight shank,
and fairly deep threads. The screws are meant for use with wood or
particle board and thus have threads deeper than a wood screw, but a
bit less than a true particle board screw. Unlike sheetrock screws
they aren't brittle.

Bingo! Dats what I had gotten!! Couldn't remember.
NOW to see if I can find them.....

Indeed, a sturdier screw, not so brittle.
