    This is probably the best post  on this problem , even if it may seem
    a little distructive. considering the small size drills involved which
    are the kind that would break off. 

    The metals don't even have to be soft, alittle doiamond compound
    takes care of that. you might want more than 1 cross notch. It just
    depends on what you have to cut out , you want to just surround the
    totaly stuck object. Then just plug the hole or incorprate it in the
    design. after the initial fool arround it is sometimes best to just
    get drastic. Jesse
