I don't think the screws themselves are any sort of joke; rather their use in a coach building capacity. I have never heard of them being used and I fail to see the benefit. There have of course been some odd methods. In a previous restoration of my Swallow saloon the rear wings were attached with wood screws as normal but instead of using washers, 2p coins with a holes drilled through were used. I understand defacing the currency is a criminal offence?
