I have an Embryon with a stripped set screw on the upper flipper. I was wondering how you prefer to get it out when it strips?
thanks,

My first attempt was to jam a drill bit in there and spin it out -- but that didn't work. I can't get one to catch just right.

Is it a "cap screw" or a headless set-screw?
what are the options here? I'd like to avoid dremeling the flipper off -- that's a lot of things to remove and dust to manage...
In the automotive repair business I had a lot of luck using reverse twist drill bits. They tend to grab old broken screws pretty well and twist them on out.
