When deciding between #8 and #10 deck screws, consider the thickness of the materials you're joining and the structural demands of your project. #8 screws are suitable for lighter-duty applications and thinner materials, while #10 screws offer more strength and are better for heavier-duty connections or thicker materials. Always ensure the screws are long enough to penetrate at least halfway into the supporting material for optimal holding power.
