   I tried to make a tiny hole saw to cut out rusted and broken steel   
   screws galvanicaly bonded into aluminum sheet last year... maybe the   
   year before.  It was a work of art, until all the teeth sheared off   
   instantly on the first screw.  Then I did what I should have done in the   
   first place and picked up the plasma cutter.

   I found and considered this too:

   But I didn't want to risk the work of boring the bearing recesses to a   
   finger press fit.
