I have a 2X6 plank on my new trailer that has warped and popped two screws in half that I need to replace and need some advice. These screws are tapered at the end but are not self drilling and have the wide flat heads that are driven with a star shaped bit. When I drill the new holes through the wood plank and into the metal frame below the wood should the drill bit be one sized smaller than the diameter of the screw? I have never used this kind of screw before and am not familiar with its application. Thanks.....
