Aaron Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 After making my angle iron into a pretzel, I bolted a chain to the flywheel and block, preventing the flywheel from turning on me. Then I used a propane torch, trying to break to oxides- no good. I was standing on the end of a 4 foot breaker bar, jumping up and down, expecting the bar to snap at any moment (it was bending around 10-15 degrees)And STILL it wouldn't budge-all this was after soaking it with penetrant for days. Finally, I went by harbor freight tools to get a nut-splitter, and they had a 1/2" electric impact wrench on sale for $50( No air tools yet ). I thought-"what the hell", and decided to give it a try. it took a few minutes of hammering on it with the impact wrench- but it did the trick. I'm pretty sure Bruce T. was messing with me on the video... "lightly bounce on it, and it will break free" Yeah RIGHT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
