Sorry that this is a bit 'after the fact' - but I would like to
eulogise about a product introduced to me by a puppet maker - Zip
Kicker is a superglue catalyst. It's available under different brands
but that's the one I know. You can get the same result as epoxy in
seconds! Spot of glue in
A big thank you to all who responded to my list. I tried the
needle-nosed pliers as suggested by Ryan and it worked (I'll keep the
other solutions in mind in case this happens again, though).
Now, does anyone know where I can get a replacement screw?

Yeah, it's the least-damaging
Auto mechanics and machinists will apply a small glob of grease at
the spot where the hole is to be drilled, to catch the chips so they
DON'T contaminate other parts.

Also have a vacuum running,
like carpenters who want to capture sawdust.

That would take patience, but DAMN will I use that technique in the
future.
Great idea!
Yeah,
anyone has ideas on removing a screw with a worn-out head?
Go to a good hardware store or an auto parts store and get a small
'easy out' and a drill bit to match. The easy out is a small wedge
shaped screw with a reverse thread. You drill a small hole in the
center of the phillips head 'X'

putty around the screw to catch any filings?

I would like to defer to Kyle for an answer to this.
Kyle?
Just blow the machine out with compressed air after doing it, and before
putting any power load on it and it will be fine.
