The OpenSCAD code

This is the OpenSCAD code that will end up in your final case .scad file:

module ScrewHole_substract(hole_diameter, head_diameter) {
    translate([0,0,-10])
        cylinder(15, (hole_diameter/2)+0.2, (hole_diameter/2)+0.2);
}
module ScrewHole(hole_diameter, head_diameter) {
    difference() {
        cylinder(1, (head_diameter/2)+0.2, (head_diameter/2)+0.2);

        ScrewHole_substract(hole_diameter, head_diameter);
    }
}
