Post by: Otraotaku on November 26, 2005, 10:42:33 pm

ive been trying to get my hands on a Special screwdriver that i desperately always seem to need when it comes to taking electronics apart... now iver tried a local ACE hardware store and a Home Depot... no luck,

Where are you located? I have one I could let you borrow.

I've always found that the small hardware shops (the ones that aren't a big chain of shops) seem to have all sorts of tools and parts you won't find in the big places.

Tri-wings are considered a "security" bit and are usually included in those deluxe sets of security bits at Harbor Freight and Sears. One thing for sure is you won't find it at Radio Shaft.
