Talk:Screw

The trivia section states that the screws could be used as bolts since they aren't threaded, but I've never in my life seen a threadless bolt (it actually makes no sense). Closest thing would be clevis pin, which these do not at all resemble.

Alternate comparison unfair?
The comparison with the alternate recipes is showing iron ingots and steel ingots as starting points. These, however, have different material and energetic costs. The steel beam version is shown as the most energetically efficient but I'm not sure of that because the average steel ingot costs 21,33 MJ to produce and the steel ingot costs only 8 MJ. I would suggest including the full process from ore to screw or just the last step itself. Super-pirata (talk) 14:29, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * A Steel Ingot needs 47.53 MJ to produce, from ore, not 21.33 MJ. Check steel ingot page for more info. Then, as a single ingot cost 47.53 MJ, producing 1 of them per second will also means 60 Steel Ingots / min, which equals to 47.53 MW. But hey, the screw at 60/min only need 4.62 Steel Ingot / min, so you scale it down from 60/min and the energy for steel ingot accordingly. Use this logic to calculate all the remaining products.
 * Thanks for pointing this out, but the math for this page should have no problem. The energy cost is included from mining the iron ore and coal ore themselves, including all intermediate steps.Kwjcool321 (talk) 17:39, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
