I have to take a break from fixing the microwave. I need a screwdriver that I don't have. It's a 6-point star with round thing in the middle so that a regular 6-point doesn't work. It's even more annoying than the 8-point star drivers I had to buy to fix my VW... more annoying because I think what I'm going to discover when I open this up is that something is wrong that's not worth fixing, and I'll have bought the special weird 6-point tool for nothing.
