+1, came here to say this. Channel locks work well too, sometimes preferable to vise grips because you can modulate grip better to avoid slippage.

Sometimes I’ve taken a Dremel to a stripped screw to carve a slot for a flat head screwdriver to gain purchase

Or hack saw a slot across the head and use a flat screw driver. If that fails, drill through the head using a large bit so the head falls off.

Remove the arm first

I can't. The blade is attached to the hub with that screw. That's the problem I'm trying to solve. I got the other blades off, but this one screw on one blade is stripped+jammed

Do you have a ratchet? A ratchet with a Phillips head bit might be able to pull off the rubber band hack

Longer Philip's bit Use a screw extraction bit Use a dremel cut wheel to carve a slot for a flat head screwdriver Grind down the sides to get a pair of pliers on it Use JB weld to glue something onto the screw head that gives you enough leverage to turn it
