GOT EM OUT! I used a "grab bit" that I picked up from the local hardware. Has a burnishing bit on one end to make an indentation and tapered reverse bit on the other end like an extractor. A little heat and that dude came right out. Thanks for the help guys.

i'm resurecting this 'cause in the 4 years since it died we've acquired a ton of new members, and many of them might appreciate the info in this thread.

the thread i referenced above in response #19 contains another method in addition to those contained elsewhere in this thread. here's a pic and you can go here to read about it.



if you can't get a screw out using one of the tricks discussed in this thread you prolly oughtta just melt your scoot down and make jewelry out of it or something.

thanx, but i get no credit. SamIyam over on the H.A.M.B. originally posted this several years ago. according to Sam Snap-On makes a tool just like this, but he made up one with stuff he had lying around.

I hear a soldering iron on the head of the screw is good to heat it up as well...
