| Post subject: | Screwdriver thickness? |
Hi I bought a jewelry screwdriver set that comes with 1.2mm 1.4mm and 1.6mm to add a link to my montbrillant. However the ridge in the screw doesn't seem to be deep enough to get enough torque. Do I just have the wrong screwdriver? Are there any local brick and mortar stores that'd carry something that'd do the trick or am I just better of getting it resized at the store? Thanks. |

The 1.6 should work fine. 1.8 is ideal but harder to get in see for some reason. Sometimes it takes quite a bit of downward pressure and at the same time using a technique where you torque and ease off a few times until you get some initial movement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Make sure the blade is sharp and straight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Width aside, is there a certain blade thinness needed? I know most use bergeon, but I'm using something similar to this: http://www.sears.com/trademark-tools-21 ... 925630000P Could the blade on a 1.6mm width screwdriver still be too thick? |
