Me too. Ditto if I get a machine with screws missing. I find screws with 
the right thread and put them in. Better that than having some part not 
properly fixed.

Well, I might have a go at making the tool (or modifying one, e.g. 
drilling a hold in a Torx or Allen hex tool to fit a tamperproof screw if 
the right tool wasn't available).
