The Right Tool for the Job!

A couple of weeks ago our coffee pot started leaking.  A little at first then more.  I took it out of service and went back to the old stand-by 40 year old CorningWare percolator.  Make pretty good coffee but it's not as big.  I put the leaking Cuisinart out in the garage.
Being naturally curious I wanted to see if I could figure out what was wrong with it.  Turns out there wasn't really a whole lot wrong with it until.........

Well there are all these  hidden specialty fasteners, and special screws recessed so deeply that you can't even see what kind of screw it is. After trying every tool in the box trying to get the little bastard open I came to my last tool.  And it opened it......

And there isn't enough Super-Glue in the world to fix it now, because the last tool I tried was a hammer.
