    Can also use a manual drill or anything to bore through and drill down the center (just until the level of the base, creating a wider concave) that way the edges thin out, then you can use a small flat head screwdriver to nudge the sides inward. The thinner it is, the easier to push. And lessen the damage as well.

    Its funny how I discovered this in a fit of frustration. Although some may think so, i dont think the damage is terrible. It's easily fixed with some putty and a thin dowel to keep the screw clear. And if people customize, they end up sanding down the chassis to some extent. Cool vid.
