I use cheap screwdrivers that have a provision for a 10mm wrench up near the handle. I push really hard and twist the 10mm wrench.
The other thing I do: Hit them with a flat faced chisel before you even try to twist the screws.. or just hit them flat with a hammer. This helps "shake" them loose. I honestly have never used a impact screwdriver on them.... but I know most people use them. B |
