And I did manage to get that screw to undo. I asked it very persuasively with a very big screwdriver.Yes, the right tool for the job! ;-)I have a screw driver I refer to as "Big Bertha". It is about 3 feet long and has a blade that is about 3/4" wide. It also has a square shank that I can apply a wrench to for help.
Well, I can't claim that I own such a monster. Mine is big enough that I have hardly ever used it for actually turning a screw, until today when it finally found its vocation. It's mostly used for prying things, etc.
> BTW, stubborn screws into the aluminum head or case, just smack it hard > with a hammer. Will loosen them right up.I've heard of this and did try holding the screwdriver in the slot in the screw and whacking it with a hammer. Who knows, maybe it worked.
