SMC Pentax-DA 21mm F3.2 Limited - Is it fixable?

Back to the screwdriver set, I see them in different sizes - I guess this one would work? Would this give me the small sizes that I need? https://www.amazon.com/Precision-Screwdriver-TD-56S-Vessel-Japan/dp/B07BYV6P...3&s=hi&sr=1-11

Agree that taking the Da21 ltd apart from the front is surprisingly easy. Getting hold of the JIS screwdrivers is the main issue. How to thread lock once your're done is also an issue. Permanence vs repairability. I don't know the best answer.

you should use JIS screw drivers:

Nice thread, I am a fan of the DA21 before I decided to go simple and get the 20-40.
