Do I have to use other material to put the bottom case back on or is it easy to do by hand?
When I was closing it up I just put it over the components and got the screws back in and it was working fine
Can I use a Jimmy instead of the opening picks?
If you're talking about the iFixIt Jimmy then I should say to be careful to not damage anything inside
I used a small standard screwdriver to "CAREFULL" separate the back plate. Suggest you have a can of air to clean the dust and crumbs off the motherboard
