Set/3 Hollow Screw Extractors

Detailed Description
This simple Screw Extractor tool solves the problem of removing small or hardened screws broken off in wood. When you can't drill into the screw and use a conventional screw extractor, use one of these hollow bits to cut free a core of wood around the screw. Then pop out the core along with the broken screw and fill the hole with a dowel or plug. Use a plug cutter or tenon cutter (sold separately) to make invisible repairs using the same species of wood. 1/4" outside diameter extractor works for screws up to size #6. 5/16" outside diameter extractor works for screws up to size #10. 1/4" outside diameter extractor works for screws up to size #14.
Since this tool has no center point, it is best used with a drill press or guide block. To make a simple guide block, simply drill a hole the outside diameter of the hollow screw extractor in a hardwood block. Clamp the guide block in place and drill through the hole.
