Use the widest screwdriver which doesn't overhang the ends of the screw slot. Stone the width of the taper so that it wedges deep into the slot without touching the bottom. Hold the screwdriver vertically, push down very firmly, and twist anticlockwise.

If you do the above, the tip will not slip.

The best and most concise description ever written of how it should be done! 

This is what it should look like.

Really excellent informational image and instruction. Visual is so much easier to follow.

Do you have a database of your lessons. Would you allow purchase as a set?

Thank you

I'm afraid not and even if I had, I would happily share it with you for free. Some time ago I made a compilation of my walkthroughs here on WRT and you'll find it by clicking here.

I have the unedited pictures for other calibres (listed below) that I plan to create walkthroughs for but we'll see when and if I get around to it. If I do I'll let you know.

I couldn't agree more but I'm afraid my only contribution was the picture. The explanation was made by @Klassiker

Kalle shows it in a new video (at 57:22)

I was about to show this to someone, but it turns out Kalle has decided his content is now a Netflix-style subscription service. Can’t say I’m thrilled.
