I have never seen a screw being hammered and i take
offense at that statement. It’s European snobbery.
sixty years ago, I met a kid from North Carolina who said that he had
worked for a summer for a boat builder, and that THAT (hammering screws)
was better results than nails, or turning screws. I did not respond to
him. So, apparently it has been done, as a cheating shortcut for those
who want the look of screws, but the laziness of hammering them.
