Archimedes' invention of the screw is for digging into things. A drill is an example of a screw. During Archimedes' time, people used the screw to bring water from low ground level to high ground level. The screw is also used for building things too. They are used like nails to put things together.

The screw is an application of the inclined plane, and is most commonly used as a fastener to hold combinations of sheet metal, wood, or plastic together, as hinges on a door.

The screw is also used in manufacturing to apply pressure to slowly push materials through a die in a process known as extrusion.
