34theletterbetweenB&D Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Tried tightening them a little further immediately before attempting to unscrew them? Once the 'grip' is broken, they will usually come out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the 'grip' is broken, they will usually come out. Yeh tried it, but thanks for taking the time to answer. Also tried heating the screw driver head with a lighter, filling down another driver. I've been at this for two hours and I'm close to just ripping the thing appart. :aggressive_mini: Best regards, Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzyo Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 A blob of super glue gel on the end of the screwdriver blade may help. OzzyO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
