Not as important to woodturning as talcum powder, but I think faceplate
screws, in particular drywall screws, are worth some discussion here.

FWIW, I just watched a Taunton Press video, "Bowl Turning with Del
Stubbs", in which he mentions using drywall screws to secure work to
faceplates. I myself have used fine thread #8 1 1/8" drywall screws
without a failure - yet...
