Well duane, it happened. I thought of you the second the stud snappedTook one of these. To do one of these So I got smart And out the other one came with an impact. Dab of 7018 on the nut/stud. Wish I'd of done it for the first one. Now I have a small mining operation on my hands "Any day above ground is a good day"http://www.farmersamm.com/
Reply:A bit of flame on the boss around the first stud might have prevented it from snapping off, don't ya think?Once you have a nut welded to the broken stud a bit of flame on the boss will still work in your favor.But you already know that.- MondoMember, AWSLincoln ProMIG 140Lincoln AC TombstoneCraftsman Lathe 12 x 24 c1935Atlas MFC Horizontal MillCraftsman Commercial Lathe 12 x 36 c1970- - - I'll just keep on keepin' on.
Reply:Reverse twist drill bits Samm. Get about 3 different sizes and work your way up to that 1/2 inch? stud. Get an xtra one for the starter dril and remember to put your drill motor in reverse.Last edited by Insaneride; 12-29-2012 at 08:32 PM.Reason: remember to not forget
