ups.com... Hi maybe you can help....three of the screws is frozen on the traveler Philips head. What's best heating and if so do I use a heat gun on the screw head? The traveler is aluminum. I also have a deck organizer Schafer with frozen flat screw heads into a iron embedded backing plate. A hand impact driver from Sears works well if you have something reasonably solid behind the screws http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?BV_UseBVCookie=Yes&vertical=TOOL&pid=00 947641000&subcat=Automotive+Specialty+Tools Craftsman Impact Driver Sears item #00947641000 Mfr. model #47641 The trick to using this is to not try to make the screw turn much - most of the impact needs to go into pounding the bit into the screw. -- -- Geoff The Sea Hawk at Wow Way d0t Com remove spaces and make the obvious substitutions to reply by mail When immigration is outlawed, only outlaws will immigrate. |
