An inquisitive mind!!!!!!!!!!!!! might conclude that the profit margin on larger screws is way higher because!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is less work and expense in making fewer screws!!!!!!!!!!!!

No argument from me!!!
If you were a screw manufacturer do you think it would cost you more to make 1,000 individual screws with heads, or 200 individual screws that are just a little longer???
I interpret your using the term "mental masturbation" in your replies an insult and would appreciate it if you wouldn't do that.
Thanks.

Nope---I just use it humorously often in other posts--don't take it personal C!!! Toughin up buddy. You'll know when I post an insult!!!!!!
The raw materials for 5 pounds of screws seems to be the same regardless of the length of the screw. The labor and or machining to make 1,000 screws would seem to be more than to make 200 longer screws.
Okay. Please provide me your most recent link showing your common use of the term to someone else.freetown fred wrote: ↑Fri. Feb. 10, 2023 10:42 amNope---I just use it humorously often in other posts--don't take it personal C!!! Toughin up buddy. You'll know when I post an insult!!!!!!

Im only giving a link as I know Fred's techy skills arent as good as mine. The 2nd word cant be searched as I guess it isnt allowed, but the word mental can be. Here are Fred's posts that include the word mental. Im betting its been used more than that by other people too, possibly myself included. Its a somewhat common phrase here used for overthinking something. Anyway... search.php?keywords=mental+&terms=all&author=free ... mit=Search
