Need help identifying a screw and the bit it takes

<< < (2/3) > >>

Joystick Jerk:
Well, my local Rona/Revy didn't have any Torx security in stock, so while looking around online for a supplier I found that Sears carries a very affordable set. $9.99 for a Torx Security set containing T-10, T-13, T-20, T-25, T-27 and T-30. This would be a hell of a lot quicker to pick up than ordering from Happ, because who doesn't have a Sears close by.

I found a secuirty Torx bit set at all places-- Big Lots... for about $2.49 with 8 Torx and 8 Security Torx bits.

You can get the security Torx kits, I just took a pair of vice grips, tightened them around the head, then twisted the screws out.  Worked rather nicely and cheaply, especially since I doubt that Id actually be accquiring as many machines as some of the members on the boards  :laugh:

Ken Layton:
Tamperproof Torx # T-20 is the most common size on video games.

monkeybomb:
I used a flathead that fit into the top point and the one poining down right.  It worked.
