In Response To: Ok, how about the screw holes? (Tim Sharpe P21 "JennyLyn")

The stanchions should be held in with bolts except for maybe around the bulkheads but that wouldn't be threads, just grooves in the wood. I've used a drill bit that's just a little bit smaller than the hole. I don't use it on the drill just move it around in there by hand.
