All - The newer Toastmaster poppers seem to be secured with screws with triangular slots (called triangular recess, i've found). Does anyone have a good resource for finding bits that match a triangular slot or strategies for dealing with them? Home Depot was no help, and i'm hesitant to shell out 6$ for one from the single online store i've found. thanks in advance jason -- jason z. moore graduate student computer music and multimedia composition brown universityhttp://www.badmonkey.org |
I made one with a cheap square drive bit and a file. not precise or long-term but it got the damned whatever-it-was open. Jason Z. Moore wrote: <Snip> |
The tip of a needle nose plier also works in a pinch - you smack your knuckles a bit turning it around, but then toss the screws when done and put regular 'removable' ones in their place. Bob |
