How to loosen factory screws on curtain hardware.
The escutcheon on this expensive curtain bracket is misaligned and needs to be rotated. Should be a simple matter of loosening the screw holding the bracket to the escutcheon, rotate the escutcheon, and tighten the screw. But… I’ve reefed on this screw as hard as I can with my largest slotted driver and it won’t budge. Anybody know if these are welded in or how to get these loosened? The bit seems to be a “combo Phillips slotted”, but I can’t find the right bit online. There are a lot of similar pozilock and xeno bits, but they seem to require slots in both directions. This only has one slot with a giant Phillips depression in the middle of it. submitted by /u/sloansleydale [link] [comments]
