How do i remove these anchors? Is there maybe a way to push them further in so i can just add filler on top? I decided to refinish this piece of furniture but found myself stumped already. The anchors are flush with the furniture, so i can't grab them from the top.

I had this problem once and I ended up drilling it. Fortunately my drill bit is harder than the anchor, so it works. Wear eye protection though because metal dust is no joke.
