Quick question re drills...

[Gozogozo]

I have a floating shelf whose fixings are bent so the shelf droops. I am going to get a new shelf & fixings but had got specially long screws before.
Can I reuse the screws? (I will be drilling new holes.)

If they aren't bent, of course you can. Screws are not dear though.

Also you may need more for a conventional shelf bracket.

Thank you.

re the screws- it was more an add-to-my-woeful-diy-knowledge type of question rather than being tight!
