Screwing affects my ears!

Not what you think. If I manually screw in (or out) a screw - like, with a screwdriver, 9 times out of 10 I get a strange sensation in my ear drum - almost like my ear drum has a 'twitch' which I hear as a almost a drum roll on a bass drum. I'm guessing I'm just weird?

I'm guessing that you have a high sensitivity to a frequency range that includes the squeal of wood fibers slowly yielding to the shearing force exerted by a wood screw turned by hand. That's rather unusual, since I would guess that to be in the 2 - 10 Hz range, depending on the speed of your wrist, and normal human hearing covers the band from 20 Hz to less than 20 kHz. Good for you! But don't expect to keep that ability, as the tiny bones in the inner ear are among the first to go with age. ;P

Interesting thought - but it's certainly not due to any (audible) sound - and at my age I don't get to hear much over the bellowing of a whale ;)

The trom bone? (In my case itu was the trumpet - which my mother threw in the bin when i was about 9!

How do you consider a sound of 2 - 10 Hz a 'squeal'? That sounds more like a rumble to me. I have often heard a clearly audible squeak when turning screws in, way within the normal hearing frequency range. Maybe SockPuppeteer is picking up on a very low volume squeak of a similar nature. A subliminal squeak, as it were.
