Thanks for the instructions, but I’m an old man (74) with not much strength these days, and so I am having MUCH difficulty removing these TINY screws even with a jeweler’s screwdriver (the smallest Phillips driver I have. I’ll have to look for a smaller set of screwdrivers, and perhaps a younger, stronger, more adept person to help.
But thanks for the instructions and for the knowhow. MY specialties are writing (awards for writing), photography (awards for photography), acting, poetry, computer building/repair, and so on.
Thanks again.
