Discuss 3.5mm machine socket screws in the Electrical Tools and Products area at ElectriciansForums.net

what ab out some of these new fangled 3.5's.they're small pozi. do we do NSEW or diagonal?
 
Classic case of back peddling - was serious to begin but realised the mistake so it turns to a wind up!
There are newbies that think they can do socket screws up with impacts or electric screwdrivers, I had to convince a new mate that doing it that way was asking for trouble. You need to feel the screw in the thread, knowing when it feels good or bad, when it cross threads and when you need to start it all over again. Of course using an impact makes it very difficult to leave the slots at 3 and 9 o’clock - let the battle begin!
Its like with women, you need to know how to handle them and step away when you have over stepped the mark (coming home smelling of cheap perfume and an even cheaper dodgy kebab all over your shirt)
 
don't do the cheap perfume and kebab bit. it's got to be canal no 5 and sirloin steak.
