Since I didn't have a decent drawing to refer to, I thought those two screws

this, "Don't go looking for Zebra's".



The more complete saying goes something like: "When you hear the sound of
hooves outside, think horses; not zebras. You're much more apt to be correct."

Been there, done that. I have more talent than most at turning 20 minute jobs
into all day ordeals.
