So the ‘on’ button on my calculator works intermittently and I want to open it up to see if I can clean the contacts of the button or maybe find a broken solder.
The smallest torx bit I have is an 8, and it is a lot smaller than that.
Where is the best place to find something along those lines? Radio shack? Home Depot?
Tia.
(I know these are cheap and I could just but a new one but I want to at least try)
I have used a flat blade jewelers screw driver to do just this. I have even taken a very small screw driver and ground it down once since i couldn’t find my jewelers set.
Find a precision flat blade that fits, or grind one down to fit…
They open really easy.
radioshack sells them
go to sears spend next to nothing on a craftsman set
Advanced auto has the tiny security torx bit set for like $5. Granted you don’t need the security torx head, but it’s useful on car applications as well. Otherwise, home depot, lowe’s, or sears has the individual ones you can buy for dirt cheap.
