have in the end given it up AS bad
job. Well. if such thing occurs again
don't give it up. don't lose your temper
or exert yourself. but try this recipe
for removing the screw: Heat a poker
red hot and then hold it against the
screw head for little while; wait q
few minutes for the screw to cool
down. when 1t will be found that the
screw can be removed quite easily
with the same screwdriyer that Just
previously would not perform tha
work The explanation is quite SIM
