Screw Removal Test

Obvious winner. At what point does it even matter? 🤔 #framing #carpentry #testing
What happens here
Following installation, the user repeatedly attempts to extract the screw from the wooden board using the claw end of the Craftsman claw hammer. Throughout these attempts, the hammer's head and handle are visibly subjected to significant flex and bending, illustrating the high resistance of the screw to withdrawal. On-screen text overlays highlight the strenuous effort, noting "3 bends" at one point and concluding with "19 bends," emphasizing the considerable force and multiple attempts required to even slightly budge the screw. This segment effectively demonstrates the superior holding power of screws and the difficulty of removing them without the proper tool.
Goal: Demonstrate the high resistance of a screw to removal by a claw hammer.
