It is completely stripped. I bought it with a cracked shell thinking I could easily replace it, the seller didn't mention that it was stripped though.
I can't complain as I repaired the crack with lock cylinder dust and cyanoacrylate glue, it has a scar but it's solid and has no issues flying.
I would though still like to replace the top shell as I bought a replacement (scar free!) the problem is that that damned screw will not budge.
see images from the repair of the crack, a healthy screw, and the damned stripped screw.
Is there a 1mm/1.5mm screw extractor bit that could do the trick (is that even possible considering the screw is in a recess?
I know that there are some creative minds here on the forums and hoping that someone can come up with a good workaround for me, failing that it looks as though I will be stuck with Scarface...
Thanks guys.
