    Removing un reachable screws

    No, even though it is "a old plywood cabinet, your not using" it is better constructed than a lot of the cabinets out there today. Still very useful.

    Removing un reachable screws

    It is done. I finally got that screw out in the very back corner; broke the top rail accidentally but I can fix it. Thank goodness that problem is solved.

    Removing un reachable screws

    Yes they were built onsite...1950's house. Real wood cabinets. Yeah the squiggly thing isn't a problem. And I did cut the screw off between the cabinets with my osillating tool.

    Removing un reachable screws

    I got 2 of the 3 out by using the hole saw drill bit. The 3rd is in the very back corner wedged in the corner. I'm not going to destroy the cabinet but I'll try to hammer it out. Pics

    Metal cutting blade...I have one but it's just a general one, not a heavy duty one. I tried with it and it barely made a dent in one of the screws. I'll get one tomorrow.

    Ok, gotcha. I have a Fien Tools one, never heard it called OMT...I've been off the forum a while. Not sure it would fit but I don't think I have any metal cutting blades, I'll look. That is a REALLY good idea!

    Thanks. The screws are very close to the underside of the countertop, inside one cabinet and going through another cabinet which has no countertop. Yes, I could do that but the cabinet I'm keeping has a hole in it and I really don't want that..See, this is a cabinet in a kitchen (not a...

    Thanks. Yes, I could do that but the cabinet I'm keeping has a hole in it and I really don't want that..See, this is a cabinet in a kitchen (not a garage...LOL) but since it was a cabinet question I posed it here because you guys know a lot about woodworking, cabinets connected together. Thanks...

    Removing un reachable screws

    Thanks, I could do this but the hole saw bits I have are very shallow. It also will leave a hole in the other cabinet, the one I'm keeping. Thanks for validating I'm on the right track.

    Removing un reachable screws

    I have a few screws inside a couple of cabinets that aren't easily reachable and are slotted head screws. These 3 screws hold 2 cabinets together, I want to move one of the cabinets. The screws are near the top edge of the cabinets, so there isn't a lot of room. Also, they are slotted head...
