[R-390] Any advice for removing sheared machine screws...?

I received a lot of e-mails with tips and advice, and I thank you all for
them.

I managed to remove one of the screws because it went far enough through the
panel that I was able to grip it and thread it back out the front.

On the other hand, I have been unable to remove what's left of the remaining
screw. I was able to Dremel clean slots in both ends, but could not get any
rotation or any kind of movement at all.

For now, I'm going to grind it off flush with the panel and take a further 
look at it before I re-mount the front panel...

Thanks again and 73...Jordan VE6ZT
