Hit A Bit Of A Snag When Changing Lenses On My Penny

[THE X-MAN]

I found 2-56 screws from mcmaster carr, the length is a bit too long and the head is too big to fit in the recess of the orbital.I can mod the screw so it will work......but I choose to hit up linegear and spend my time rebuilding instead of modding screws.if you want a mcmaster part number I can post it and you guys can play with the dimentions.cost was 50 pcs for $ 6.00

This really works? How long to soak?

Heat up the orbital with a candle by the screw, this will expand the Ti and let the screw come out easier.

Yeah why bother when they are readily available here from Infinite Hero or from LG. Even given your formidable skills I still think that I would rather have screws that just work than need to be tweaked. This thread is about how difficult it can be to get the right ones out.
