Thomas,
Your idea is a good one, but with one flaw. Since you are "glueing" a bolt
to the Agnus chip you are introducing the prospect of static from the bolt
damaging your old chip and/or damaging something else in your machine. This
can be prevented by grounding yourself, and should be done anyhow.
There's another flaw, what if you want to re-use your old Agnus chip? How
permanent is this glue? Will your Agnus perpetually have a bolt attached to
it now?
I'd say, order your Fatter Agnus from Grapevine, it comes with a free
extractor and the whole set costs no more than if you bought it elsewhere
(for the chip alone).
