  I found some bugs and fixed them for you. I don't know if the original author still checks this, so if you get the error "kittynoob" ran into, replace the mel files indicated with the code below. The iconTextRadioButtons needed unique names rather than Maya-generated names. Works great now in Maya 2014. First up, DVY_WoodScrew.mel.

  this is great, only i wish there was a screw with a flat bottom, and that the screws don't require a head. also, the option to turn off the auto rotate expression before being created, as well as having options available in the history for editing. for maya 8.5, i just sourced the DVY_Screws script from the script editor, then typed "DVY_Screws" in the command line and hit the enter key on the number pad.
