Get a screw extractor set. I got mine in the drill section of Lowes or Home Depot. Nowhere near as expensive but not as complete as the Irwin set above.
You drill the bit into the stripped screw by using the reverse function on your drill. When the bit sets in the stripped screwhead it is already going in reverse and SHOULD back the stripped screw out. I havent seen them for smaller screws but I havent looked either. They work like a charm when I have used them. A better option than possibly ruining an old tool, but I love buying new tools anyway. |
