I tried to take out a pentalobe screw with my pentalobe screwdriver but I found it real hard, I eventually stripped it. The screw was tripped in the "drive" (meaning the cut into the screw’s head into which the screwdriver bit fits when driving the screw into a surface).
I'm working at a macintosh workshop on an apprenticeship. My boss extracted it using a screwdriver, but the hole was wrecked, so a new screw couldn't be fitted in. I wonder if there's some way to avoid this happening again. What's the best way to remove tripped screws.
Any expert advice?
