Fixing lines out on a Data East DMD

I have a very nice and bright DMD with 4 lines out due to broken
traces and I figured I have nothing to lose trying to fix it. I know I
can just buy a new one, but what kind of challenge is that ;)
I spent sometime last night following www.txpinball.com/fixing_DMD_displays.html.
This is a great tutorial, but I noticed the data east DMD I have
(128x32) has the traces at the bottom of the glass, not at the middle
like in the tutorial. This makes it very difficult to get the dremel
tip down at the bottom to grind away and expose the leads. Perhaps
they have a very tiny grind tip?
Has anyone had success fixing broken traces on Data East DMDs? If it's
possible I'll try again since I have nothing to lose aside from time
and my temper :)
