Re: Great article on frozen bolt removal methods (MN-Brent)
Some interesting ideas there,but I am disagree with his rant on EZ-Outs.The long thin ones don't tend to work very well,but Snap-Ons short stubby spiral models are the set I use at work to get broken bolts out of the hot section of jet engines.It does take some technique to use them,but way before I was MIG welding anything I'd try them,and I've had a high success rate with good quality extractors so far.

Interesting, I'm always open to new methods and just got a MIG welder. :D
