Question

I have an Ethan Allen Armoire.  It is a two piece that uses alem screws to hold the top to the bottom.  The problem I have is that the shelf in the top also has smaller alem screws that none of my alem wrenches seem to fit.  I'm trying to remove the top shelf (with electrical connections) so I can fit a TV into the top cabinet.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Tim

Answer
Allen wrenches,... also known as Alum wrenches. You should be able to get a smaller one at a hardware store. I don't know how small you need, but if you need really small, try a store that sells glasses or watches. They have ones that are really really small.
