    Is there any chance of finding a replacement screw? Seeing as these have been sanded and damaged. If so I'd just drill the head of the rear side and punch out the screw.
    If you are scraping the wood, then do as Roger says; destroy the wood to save the part.

    I haven't seen one yet. The other alternative is to have one made. If I had a tap and die, I could make one myself. But, I understand that the threads are proprietary.
