Does anyone know of a gsm object for a pan head screw ?
Preferably a #12 philips screw?
I sure hope I don't have to make this. .

Not likely. I've never seen bulidings modeled down to the screws. I've modeled hinges with the pins and knuckles for detailed renderings but still didn't bother with the screws. Perhaps you can find one on the Google Warehouse. There's all kinds of stuff there.

I second that notion

There is a bolt in the General section of the depository but I have never seen a screw.

In 3D you would only ever see the head of the screw so that would be all you need to model?
For sections I would just create a 2D object or overlay.
