Resin Tank Screws Stripping
Anyone else have issues with the wee torx screws that go around the metal piece to install the FEP?
I have two tanks and several screws on one are stripped, the screws on the other (newer) are still working but are really difficult to get in/out.
Anyone else had this? Or has anyone replaced the screws with a different type?
Thanks

I wonder if the Prusa-supplied screws are inferior in some way? I'd be inclined to try quality screws from someone like McMaster-Carr (if you are in the States).
And I'd probably torque them to commonly recognized values for that type of screw.
