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). Joe
