How to Remove a Raised Stripped Screw

In this Instructable I will show you how to remove a stripped screw using only a hand drill. The only caveat is that the screw does need to be raised above the surface of the material.
Set Up Hand Drill


Remove the driver bit from your hand drill.
Open Chuck


Open drill chuck wide enough to fit over the head of the screw.
Tighten Chuck

Tighten the chuck firmly around the head of the screw.
Drill Direction

Switch the drill direction to the reverse direction.
Remove Screw

Turn the drill on and back the screw out of your material.
