checked past threads. I did find this set of instructions.

http://www.ehow.com/how_5766256_drill-out-stainless-steel-screw.html


as you can see, wishful thinking I guess, I tried to see if I could cover with a bit of caulk. It's obviously not flush.

Are there any tips/tricks to doing this, or are the linked directions probably adequate?


thanks,

Joe

your link goes to your photobucket pict. If the screw is just stripped, use the type of extractor i oictured above, or even just try putting a wide rubber band in between the screw and screwdriver. push hard as you unscrew. i've had some success with this method, but i have found extractors that you use in the screwgun to be quick and easy
