Tiny Torx screws and fixing mods.

[90VG]

I've been working on the Aspire Speeder, amongst other mods over the years and have always had a problem with those tiny screws to disassemble them.

I found a neat little kit at Harbor Freight, 16-In-1 Electronics Repair that has the proper sized bits for most mods I own.

Part number: 67062 I got it for $4.99 and it had the perfect bits.

By the way, it seems that most mods use Torx bit screw size 5 (T-5).

Can't argue with $4.99.

The little box it comes in is junk, but if you spray the thin plastic insert with water and pour in Original Gorilla Glue, it will foam up and make it solid.

Not quite that cheap but I got one of these off ebay. Nice batch of tools

That's much nicer. I might have to pick one of those up for the hydraulic machine. It's 60'x100' by 30' tall, and has screw terminals that are 2mm wide. Plus the bright yellow would help it not getting lost.

Actually, Shinyitus got me, I just ordered that. That's a pretty cheap expenditure, $8.50.

It is really good quality considering the price
