removing broken screws!!

A good way to remove a broken screw is to use a roll pin in the drill. With the drill in reverse and applying good pressure on the drill the roll pin should go over the broken screw. When the roll pin grabs the screw it will start to thread it out, but be careful if you're still pushing too hard it'll strip the screw,& when it comes out, the roll pin & screw will be very hot!!!! Now the hole is over-sized, therefor, you'll have to drill & plug the hole. Drill an according size hole & insert new screw !!!!!Hope this help someone someday!!!!

Extracting broken screws

Hoping you guys can help a novice from down under in New Zealand. I have removed a fitting from the teak toe rail above the transom on my boat. One of the screws was steel, the other two bronze. The bronze ones came out no problem, but the steel one had rusted half way down the shank and broke upon extraction. The broken end is just visible in the woodwork.

 

Do any of you know a way to remove the screw in such a way that another bronze one may be used? Even if it's a bigger shaft size.

 

Thanks, Ray.
