Binding Threads
Screw holes not properly threaded I had to re-thread the screw holes to be able to screw into the box. All of the boxes I checked, would not let me screw in the small screws by hand at the store. I was replacing a box because I broke the screw trying to screw into the box. The new box would have done the same. So I had to re-tap the threads in the box. I spend $30 for a set of taps to fix a $2.50 box.
