Abstract
A secondary screw that is used to penetrate through a conventional threaded screw. The secondary screw is inserted into a conventional screw that might be mounted or inserted into a wall or a post. The secondary screw provides a means to avoid leaving a hole in a wall or post by removing the primary threaded screw. In one particular embodiment, a primary screw is inserted into a wall, then the secondary screw screws into the top head of the primary screw. This arrangement enables a user to use the secondary screw as a means to hang any object upon the screw or mount any object through the use of the secondary screw.
