chipveres Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I want to point out an excellent idea Graham put in the fine print on one of his plan sheets: If you need to remove a screw held in by epoxy, heat it. I used bronze screws and epoxy to firmly install a block in completely the wrong place. :oops: Weeks later, I used an old Weller soldering gun to heat the screwhead smoking hot. I was able to scrape the epoxy out of the slot with a small screwdriver. Then a reheat and the screw came out easily. I used a small handsaw to saw the block out without damage. This would not have been possible with the screws still in place. Thanks, Graham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
