Vent: A stripped screw on a Minolta X-700's bottom plate cost me 3 hours yesterday.

I had to carefully drill it out with a 1.5mm bit after my extractor set failed, so what's your go-to method for dealing with seized tiny screws in old bodies?

Been there, ruined a Leica plate the same way.

Ugh, I did that to my M6 last year, such a dumb mistake.
