If you want to compare a Paragon to a Gold Medal machine and are up this way give me a shout I have both here. I prefer the Gold medal one.

Sean,
To get those screws out I’ll turn the machine on and let it warm up about 20 seconds. Shut it off and grab the head with an oven mitt. The screws will usually back right out when the head is warm.
Picked up a bag of replacement screws from the local hardware and keep them with the machine. I’ll replace the screw if the head starts to get buggered up.
