    :o Forgive the absolutely idiot level question here, lads. Just finished one project. Now staring into the gaping maw of a truly scary one. I'm fried.

    2x2, rough. Gonna be screwing it as wall / floor plates. Concrete floor. Stone walls. No load. Just a light enough framework.

    What size screws, please? One thing less on my bloody mind right now.

    Thanks.

    5x 80 or 5x 100, or concrete screws

    Thanks, mate :) So that's what? 3 1/4" (Or there abouts) to 4"?

    Cool. I'd probably have gone to 4 / 5", see? I'm a bugger for over compensating on screws.

    Good on rats. Complete arsehole when it comes to putting some bits of wood together! :D
