    Yeah, it’s more of a personal preference thing.

    I would recommend against doing that to begin with since plug in kitchen appliances especially need to respond in a safe way to shorts and even the basic barrier to entry that some weird screw presents is enough to make a person who might inadvertently kill themselves or someone else slow their roll.

    But you can for a very low price acquire the tools to allow you to open many objects.
