Dremmel Method - Screw Removal

This method works great. I've been removing stubborn screws from the window screen frame and other places as a step to removing the lower inner skins. After the screw heads are "popped" off I can now easily remove the frame. Then using a pair of vice grips its an easy step to remove the remaining part of the screw from the frame! Thanks.
