I've got a piece of electronics I want to hax0r around with, but its put together with tamper-resistant torx screws in deep wells. I haven't got anything capable of extracting them. They're sort of like inverse torx screws; the whole head is shaped like what's normally the inset in the screw head. Anyone got any ideas on where to get proper extractors (or how to fashion one myself)?

Me likey Harbor Freight, but there are someotherplaces. Anyway I think what you're looking for are security bits.

Thanks, that first link was great...cheap, too. Think I'll just pop off an order for that. Sure all those bits'll come in handy again some day.

Upgrade to self-sealing Stem Bolts and you wont have these problems.
