Marred Screws on 16g VH

[Adam Steinquist]

Thanks Dudley. Is this a case of SOL, or are there persons who can either make a new screw or fit an existing one? Is it even worth the cost if I can find someone to do the work? I can live with the two originals that are marred, but would love to have something that looks less out of place for the front screw.

Those look pretty bad, but, on occasion, it's possible to peen the distorted slot edge back down. It doesn't make it look great, just passable to ok. a 1/4" Starrett punch works ok.
