Inland Saw

[bkhunt]

Just got an Inland saw is brand new never used for an awesome price. I just got it and one of the foot is broken (knew about it) and the screw holes are stripped (did not). From what I see when they are shipped the feet are attached so them getting tossed around does not help. I have the foot drying with plastic weld right now but also ordering a new one from Inland for $16 shipped. My question is does any have experience with the screw hole stripping and then fixing them?

They make inserts. here are 2 different Types
Helical
Rivet nuts
You could also tap the hole for a bigger threaded screw

Lowe’s for the win $5 for 2 sets of stainless steel screws - slightly fatter and extra fatter. Slightly fatter for the win. Just wait for the new foot in the mail hopefully Monday.
