[Boatanchors] Stripped Screws - Ignore Alien Orders !

[BLIMPY]

Ignore Alien Orders !

For crying out loud... don't funk up your rare radios.. like a Johnson 
Navigator with epoxy and toothpicks !

I mean who told you this.. some toothless drunk in a trailer park ??

What you do is buy a tap for the next size larger machine screw... standard 
sizes are 6-32  ( eg # 6 screw, with 32 threads per inch or tpi),  8-32 ,
10-32  or 10-24.

Then you buy the appropriate NUMBER SIZE DRILL   ( info will be with the 
tap).

And you buy and inexpensive tap chuck.

1. drill out the hole
2,  Tap the hole with the tap.. using a small amount of oil.   Read info on 
how this is done.

3.  Substitute nice new screws of the appropriate size for the newly tapped 
holes.

Everything you need can be bought at any good ACE hardware store.

End of story.
