Thanks - I've arranged to borrow one of these from a friend, and I
should probably buy one anyway to have around.

Subject: AW: 1 Dumb question/ stuck screw in a-100


Here in Germany special "negative" drills (with inverse or left spiral)
are availabe at hardware stores. You need a powered hand drill with both
right and left rotary direction. Most battery powered hand drills have
this option available. With this tool it should be no problem to remove
stuck screws.

Best wishes
