Removing T6 Screws

[jlee226]

probably not on an R1...use a small smooth flat screwdriver to work between the pieces and gently pry as close to the screw as possible...

I see. thanks for the tips! I also heard gorilla glue works well? I'm thinking about trying that before prying it apart.

I got a 1/8 drill bit but I'll do that if Im out of options. The bit comes pretty close to touching x metal.

youll feel the head pop once you break through to the threaded stud.but you gotta drill at a low speed use some oil on the tip of the drill and take your time.if the stainless screw work hardens due to a fast drill speed your gonna be in trouble

Im more concerned about accidentally drilling into the frame hah . By oil, would wd-40 work?

Use a left handed drill bit, this will pull out the thread as you drill rather that tighten it more.

thanks for that tip, anyone know any jewlers or shops that could do it for me? I myself ain't really a handyman to be honest.
