Hi,
PITA. I try to center punch a the edge of the screw and use the small center punch and hammer to turn counter clockwise after soaking with penetrant. Most of the time I wind up drilling out the screw unless it's pretty loose.
Good Luck
Jon

Any hints tips or tricks any one can think of before i square this thing up in a vertical end mill and redrill the hole ?
