one thing i am 100% positive on is that a larger screw is NEVER a good idea. the wood you remove from the inside of the hole can never be put back, its better to dowel the hole with glue & toothpicks rather than going larger. my issue is that the screw fits & tightens when screwed in it just loosens.
