Screws are components used in Mechanics
Usage
Screws are used in repairing vehicle parts. This is the only current use for them.
Boxes
100 screws can be consolidated into a box of screws, but this currently doesn't provide any encumbrance benefit/change as it normally does with nails and ammunition. (x100 unboxed screws still weighs 0.3 when it should be 1.0)
