Thanks. One of my issues is finding a Phillips head that fits it just right. I've tried probably 10 different ones and none get a good bite on it. They're just begging me to strip the head out. One set I actually drilled a hole through the threads so I could get a hardened rod through them (like the letter T) and still couldn't get them to budge until cherry red hot. They're a bear.
