Piece Locking

Why are “locking washers” necessary when bolting two pieces of wood together?
What would happen if I didn’t use one? I’m bolting together pieces of wood and do not have enough clearance to use a washer and a locking washer – how bad would that be?
PlainJane offers some valid suggestions. Lock washers are designed primarily for PARTS that are likely to move in some way, or vibrate. Since we don’t know any details about the two pieces of wood you want to bolt together; it may be a useless effort to LOCK the nut to the bolt.
Another answer suggests countersink, which is also a valid suggestion. Lock nuts can also be used, but again, without knowing your intent; any and all advise here might be considered.
