Hi Silas

> I think it's simply called a wood screw in English.
A wood screw has a slightly conic shaft, with no windings on the upper end.

A spax has a straigh shaft. Wood screws are used for fixing two parts of 
wood to each other. A spax is intended to be used to fix something other 
on a particle board (or is it called "pressboard")
