[* black] Your screw is stripped, and your screwdriver is no longer sufficient. Before busting out the heavy hitters, try the following: |
[* black] Use different screwdrivers. First try slightly smaller or larger head sizes, then a flat head screwdriver, to see if you can get it to catch on some part of the stripped screw. |
[* icon_caution] If the bit doesn't catch the screw instantly, do not continue. Otherwise, you run the risk of further stripping the screw.
|
[* black] If either of these techniques are fruitful, congrats! Your screw is free.
