1. How to renew and reuse a screw?
Typically, removing and reseating a screw results in a damaged slot. This is especially important if the screwdriver blade does not fit the screw. You can try to restore the old bolt if you don’t have a new bolt to replace it. Start by countersinking the grooves of the bolts. This can be done with a hacksaw to cut the gaps. If the bolt is not in the hole when you go to fix it, you will have to use a vise to hold the bolt. Do not use your fingers to hold the screw. This protects against injuries as well as threads.
Imagine you need to remove a Phillips screw, but you only have a screwdriver to clear the slots. You can stretch one of the nests along the entire length of the head with a hacksaw. This will allow you to unscrew the screw with a screwdriver.
2. Remove the clogged screw
If the screw has become clogged with paint, dig up the paint with an awl.
3. The trick to track where the screws go
When working on a large project, it is easy to lose track of where the screws are going when assembling the project. This trick can help you keep track of your screws. Grab a piece of corrugated cardboard that has slots on the side. Use these slots to keep the screws in the order they were removed from the item. Sometimes writing notes on the side of the cardboard can help reassemble.
4. Restore exposed bolt hole
Close the hole with a wooden golf shirt. Fill the hole with glue and insert the cork into the hole. After the glue has dried, you will be able to drill a hole and screw in a new screw.
