  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

What kind of folder do you carry?

Wera and Wiha both make excellent Torx bits, red loctite weakens at 450°f...your best bet is a VERY hot soldering iron as that will heat the screw fast with minimal heat transfer to the surrounding area.
 
That makes sense. I will get a set of those. My current set isn't very good and I have stripped screws in the past with it. If you do strip, then you basically have no recourse, right? Maybe drill or glue a bit to the stripped head and sacrifice both the bit and the screw? I can't really imagine theres much you can do with red loctite in there. It's not like you're going to force it open.

I'll try with my soldering iron. It gets pretty hot but it is very cheap.
