@envgen if you can't take a screw out because the head got messed up or you don't have the right bit for it you can melt the empty body of a pen like this one, push it against the screw so it forms to it and wait until the pen solidifies again, then use it as a makeshift screwdriver to get the screw out

@squirrel neat!!

@squirrel i get ~80% success with the rubber band method. this is the next level of screwcharming

@envgen what's the rubber band method ??

@squirrel get a rubber band (a wide one) and put it over the screw, then put the screwdriver into the screw head through the rubber band

it works for a lot of stubborn screws but not the stubbornest

@envgen oh in my case the screw head just decided to disintegrate into metal shavings

and i don't have rubber bands, so

@squirrel @envgen huh, that's a pretty kickass trick
