Got to love a very simple trick that works! Got the 2nd stuck screw out
easy-peisy with Patrick's handy trick. Too bad I had already drilled out the
1st one.
It would be great to have replacement screws for these with a hex head instead
of a flat slot. Any suggestions?
Thanks Patrick!

Sloane,Old machinist trick that works great. Use a center punch at the outer
edges of the screw. Set the point of the punch in the slot on the outer edge
and tap in the counter clockwise direction to move the screw. Do this on BOTH
sides and it should back right out. This has been a never fail for me. Good
Luck. Cheers
