Ok, I think it is time for me to mention my solution to the problem of a broken grand damper top flange screw. I will take one thin Dremel cut off wheel and cut a slot in the stub end of the screw and use a good miniature screw driver to remove the stub and then replace it with a new screw. The process will burn a little wood and it will heat the brass barrel and the screw stub which will break any bond between the two. Wear safety goggles and have a good light available. Got any more ideas? Newton
