For a basic outline on how to use a screw extractor, you just basically punch the screw before drilling and make a small hole in the center of the screw. Insert the extract and rotate counter-clockwise until the screw is free. For more detailed information, visit http://www.wikihow.com/Use-a-Screw-Extractor

Historians do not really know how or why the screw was invented. This is because the use of screws predates our records.
You can use a countersunk screw in projects that involve wood. This might be a bench or even some sort of container that opens and closes.

A screw extractor is a tool with a reverse-threaded end designed to grip onto a damaged or stripped screw. By drilling a small hole into the screw, the extractor can be inserted and turned counterclockwise to remove the screw from the material. The reverse-threaded design helps to create a gripping force that loosens the screw as it is turned.
There are tons of places that you can buy the screw extractor from. Retail stores like Sears and Ace Hardware definitely has them. Amazon.com also have them available online.

You can try using a rubber band or a piece of duct tape to provide extra grip on the nubby screw head and then twist it counterclockwise to unscrew it. Alternatively, you can use a pair of pliers or a screw extractor tool specifically designed for removing stripped or damaged screws.
Broken screws are incredibly frustrating to remove, especially when it's just the screw head that's broken off. Fortunately, screw extractors make this process as clean and simple as possible. A screw extractor kit should include a number of different bits. Start with one of the two smallest bits to make a pilot hole, then tap an extractor bit into the pilot hole with a hammer until it's firmly in place. Using a pair of pliers, continue pushing down on the extractor bit but begin to turn it counter-clockwise. The broken screw should, with a little effort, begin to slide out.
Search for "stud extractor". Looks like a drill bit but the cutters are left hand thread, designed to be used with the drill in reverse. The lid of the box or the extractor should be marked to indicate a) the screw size they are designed to extract b) the drill bit size you use to drill a hole for the extractor. Before you start apply some penetrating oil. 1) Select the correct extractor for the bolt size. 2) Use a punch to make a dimple in the centre of the snapped shaft. 3) Drill a pilot hole a few mm deep with a drill. 4) Put the drill in reverse with the extractor in it. 5) Put the extractor in the hole and go for it. 6) If that doesn't work buy "freeze and release" spray and use as instructed then repeat 5).

An extractor is a word for a fan that you often find in bathrooms. An antonym for extractor is introducer.
go to your local auto parts store and purchase an Easy Out or Screw Extractor. There are atleast 2 different kinds. I like the threaded ones that drill themselves into the screw as you turn.
a good way to remove a metal bolt is to get a screw extractor. You drill a small pilot hole down the middle of the bolt, and lightly tap the extractor into the hole. The bolt will then twist out. You may need to add lube to the bolt if its rusted (WD-40 etc.)
