frog tkl - stripped screw hole
I rebuilt my frog tonight (maybe fourth time ever). one of the screw holes in the bottom case is stripped. in particular, it's the top center hole that a long screw goes in.
I'm a little disheartened because I feel I'm careful when building. I haven't rebuilt this board many times over. I think the board is high quality for what I paid and I'm just left feeling p sad with this kind of thing happening.
anyway just wondering if anybody else has encountered this and if there is any easy fixes? is this a known or common issue?

I have experience this in my f2-84, my fix was i had to find a slightly longer screw so that it will catch the threads
Screw or screw hole? Whenever I have a stripped screw I take a hammer and a screwdriver. I hammer the screwdriver into the screw and make a new indent since screws are made of soft metal. It usually works.
