Right??? no long boring stories. He just dove right in. Best tutorial ever.
Best instructional video I've ever seen! No wasted time, no attempts to be funny. Straight to the point, good close-ups on the demonstrations.

There's so many people who just drag out the video to make more money off your wasted time. I wish all videos were concise like this one.
This video is roughly 27,000 times better than all the other videos that I found on this subject. Simple, to the point, thank you!
Now I can get the batteries from my buzz lightyear

What if you strip that one with a flat-head screwdriver? 🤯

martinez unless you time travelled to the 50's, those really aren't in use anymore.
The best two minutes I've ever spent on KZread!
The accent, the honest-to-God information, the beauty of simplicity and solutions. This is just plain wholesome on every level.
I am from the future and we still use this video! Thank you!

Thanks for the awesome tips!! Unfortunately, ours was an incredibly stripped screw and none of these worked. HOWEVER 😉, thanks to the idea of using the rubber band, we discovered ONE MORE WAY to get a stripped screw out (as long as you're able to get the screw out a fraction before fully stripped): wrap a thick-ish rubber band around the screw (just below the head, where the threads start - even above the threads is ok). Then, using a pair of needle nosed pliers, press a length of rubber band into the stripped head with one tip while grasping the outer rubber band with the other plier tip. With the screw head firmly grasped using the "grip" of the rubber band pinched between the pliers, twist to unscrew. It's taking the idea in the video one more step. Thanks for the brilliant inspiration!! You saved my day!!😉😄
I just subscribed to this channel. Why can’t all KZread instruction videos be this good?
The rubber band trick worked like a charm! Thanks so much for saving me so much aggravation! 👍
Hi.Im new here. Nice to watch someone actually satisfy a problem instead of blabbling on and on about every tool he owns and has to demonstrate. I exagerate here you can see, when all i want is a simple demonstration. Which is what you provided. Thanks so much. I'll be watching for more videos.
Excellent. I had a stripped construction screw with a star head. I didn’t have a rubber band so I tried using the bit with a nitrile glove between the bit and the screw head. Had to fold the glove a couple times for it to grip but worked perfect. Thanks for the tips!
Straightforward! "If one doesn't work, well, try another!" 😂
Hi Rob, just wanted to thank you for your videos,, I just got a perfect float on my LTD M-1000 guitar today. I am glad I didn’t have to pay guitar center to set up my guitar. Thank you again.
dude you saved me hours! I was gonna angle grind the whole screw and make a mess. plus the screw is super hard to get to. thank you so much!
Thank you for saving my day!! I had a stripped screw that was recessed deep into plastic area, hard to reach. (thanks, repair guy!) so I could not get inside my sewing ,machine for maintenance. I tried the rubber band and nothing. Then you used the extractor & I knew I need that! I went to the hardware store, came home & used it, and it worked!!! I was amazed, after trying for several days using different techniques. Screw extractor gets a thumbs up. I will be looking for screw grab to have handy.
Real life Ron Swanson 🙏
Thank you for sharing this information, straight to the point with clear and concise instructions, no fluff, no gimmicks 👌🏽👏🏽🙌🏽💯
best instructional video ever!
Thank you very much! Straight and to the point... Can't believe I never thought of option 4... Genius.
Ron hazleton you are a freaking hero my man thank you!!
Best video out of the many I’ve look at !! Thank you
Great video, no nonsense, straight to the point. Thank you so much.
The rubber band trick absolutely worked for me, and it's something I never would have thought of myself. Thank you so much.
I like the saw blade cutting a grove in the screw method. I mean it looks like a good idea.
Best instructions I’ve seen, thank you!
no fuss no bs thanks a lot great video, no annoying music etc
best video on youtube. Just stripped some screws on my engine cover and I thought I was done for. Used the rubber band trick(with a glove) and worked like a charm!
There’s 1million views and only 169k subscribers. This video deserves a follow. Thanks Ron for the tips.
Gosh this was good and helpful. A new generation of KZread DIYers thanks you.
Thank you for making a quick video right to the point! Always nice to learn new things
Thanks for taking the time to demonstrate options in this frustrating scenario. Appreciate your simple, clear tutorials.
What a great video, very awesome info in just 2 minutes. Wish I had come across this when changing my second brake rotor and stripped a torx bolt.
I bought the stuff in the second method from Sears decades ago only to realize that it was valve grinding compound. I always have valve grinding compound handy so I’ve been using it successfully ever since. The rubber band trick is new to me. I’m going to give it a try next time I run into problems. Thanks, Chris
A miracle! A lifetime of giving up on stripped screws changed with the rubber-band suggestion. Thank you!
The last technique with the cutoff tool - brilliant! Thank you so much!
the last one was the only one that work for me thanks
Best video I've watched on removing screws with a stripped head. Thank you!
Just brilliant. Thanks.
Thank you. Very helpful. Excellent voice and instruction.
THANK YOU!!! THE RUBBER BAND TRICK SAVED MY LIFE.
Your rubber band trick worked, thank you so much for showing me. You helped me out of a real jam. I was really careful not to strip any more screws after that.
You the man!!! I knew I could trust the white haired guy to give me straightforward techniques without the sales pitch for this gadget or that. God bless you sir!
Super ideas and tricks. Thank you Mr.Hazelton.
Just FYI, I had a buddy try the rubber band idea on an opposing metal corroded screw issue. I was laughing as I relayed this videos recommendation. As he was locating a rubber band we were discussing the drilling out method that surely was going to have to be used. INCORRECT! The rubber band idea worked like a champ. Unbelievable. Everyday, something new!
This video was posted over 5 years ago but still brings value. You saved me a lot of trouble today with a stripped head screw. Just wanted to drop a note to extend my deepest gratitude 🙏🏻 Thank you! And yes I used the 4th method too.
All great ideas! I'm dealing with a stripped screw right now and can't wait to try one of these methods.
That was super helpful I only knew one of those four ways. Thank you
Rubber band worked like a charm, thank you!
The last with a rotary tool saved my ass. Thank you very much!
Rubber band worked like a dream! Great video.
You are awesome!!!!! I like you show 4 different options.
You saved my day! I was in the middle of putting in my polk audio sda new crossovers, and I had two stripped screws. The making a flat head with a dremel tool did the trick. Simple but genius! Thank you!!
Thank you Ron for getting me out of a bad spot. The first option worked like a charm.
Ron you’re the Best! Thank you!!!!🏆🤩
Brilliant video! No time waisted
Your a life saver I didn’t have a rubber band and I didn’t wanna goto the store so I got a flat head and tried OMG UR THE best I love you
Thank god for people like this.
I had never thought of using a cutting blade to make a flathead screwdriver possible. I love youtube
I got 26 seconds into this video, then tried the rubber band method. Problem solved. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for teaching me something my dad didn't
This is the first video of Ron's I've watched--and I love this guy!!
Thanks Ron, your advice using the elastic band, it worked a treat! You made it look so easy and it worked! 👏
THANK YOU for be so succinct!!❤😊
The rubber band method helped me a lot , thanks!
Thank you for being clear and brief
Thanks your advice worked perfectly. I liked that the video was 2 minutes long as I have a short attention span.
THANK YOU! Doing rod and reel repair, occasionally I run across a stripped screw head on my customer's reels. The rubber band trick worked beautifully! Thank you for this video!
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO !!!
AWESOME! Loved the rubberband, and also the saw blade followed by the flat head screwdriver. Brilliant!
Thank you. I battled a stripped screw for about two hours until I saw your tip with the rotary tool. Five minutes later and success.
These are brilliant!! Thank you so much!
Love ya grandpa. Now I will get it done in no time. Thanks.
Best video and straight to the point. Thank you. You just saved me so much time.
Omg! This is soooo helpful. Thank you for sharing! 2022. Can you believe it! This helps people no matter how long you have posted the video.
Thanks for not jerking me around. Two minutes of information in a two-minute video. As it should be.
Yeah I am totally down with #4. Thanks for that, super helpful.
I sure had my doubts using an elastic band…..I was almost completely stripped the screw…..the elastic band worked like a charm….thanks
Ron.. you know, you made my morning better! Thanks.. I can count on you
Great video. Straight to the point. Excellent advice.
Thank you so much! You did a great job with this video.
The last method using the rotary tool worked for me, thank you.
thanks! solution #4 will come in handy!
Your voice sounds like sounded like I was watching a news segment, lol but it was very informative! Thank you for sharing! 😊
I bought one of these little packs of screw remover tools but the instructions were difficult to make out. We were trying to take out the screws holding a hard drive in a computer and someone had already tried and stripped the screw heads. I was thinking that what I'd bought was rubbish but after watching your video I had another go, and hooray! It worked. Thank you for your clear and concise explanations.
This is awesome!
Simple and to the point. I love it.

It's like I asked my dad or granddad how to do it.
Turning the screw into a slotted screw, that did the trick. Thanks!
