I am mightily pleased with myself for putting the dryer on an upside-down piece of carpet - it slides out easily. But the fixings on the back are a rounded hex on the outside, and a six pointed star inside, which do not look designed for removal by the casual user :-/ Ah well, it was worth a look at.

Also it's 8.5 years not, not just six!

> six pointed star inside

That is still a "standard" for security screws. I bought myself a set of those when I needed to open my Sky Plus box to replace the hard disk. - oh and I've just found the spare set . The six sided star is called a T15, T20, or T25 depending on the size.
