Bought a trophy case online but the screws are not tightening in the pilot hole
The case has metal doors that prop up and the pilot holes for some screws are either too big so the screw goes right through it, or it does screw in but never tightens (it just keeps spinning). The manufacturer is being difficult so I'm thinking about fixing it myself but wanted to know what the best way to do that was. Should I go up a screw size and drill new holes? There is nothing in the metal for the screws to catch on so I think they're supposed to tighten on the threads of the pilot holes. submitted by /u/johnnydwellens [link] [comments]
