Your clamping problem, you can put bolts in the casting and set/bolt a strap across the opening on each side. Then you can either clamp directly to those bars or put a piece of tubing across them and clamp that using the T slots in the radial arm drill table. Over three decades in a job shop makes for some creative, quick solutions. Jeff

Heat and an application of candle wax on it immediately afterwards works wonders on broken bolts and stubborn plugs. The wax will wick into any gaps like a penetrating oil. Also helps lubricate the threads a bit. We do this all the time getting oil and water jacket plugs out of engine blocks at my Dad's machine shop.

I like to heat the broken bolt, then spray with PB blaster or any penetrating oil, even water. The theory is the cold liquid helps to cool the bolt quickly and break the bond. Or weld a flat washer then a nut, and again the added heat helps break it loose. Love the videos!

As you have said, easy outs are a misnomer. I have remove many a broken stub by welding a nut to the top of the stud, even when it is below the surface of the casting. Let the stud cool somewhat then try extracting the stud. If the weld breaks, rinse and repeat, as you often say. I got the idea from a book published by Lincoln Electric back in the 1940s. Works for me every time. I think I recall Keith Fenner doing that same process one time. I enjoy your work mate. Cheers from Australia.

A trick I use is to heat up the casting and apply a candle to the thread joint. As the wax melts it flows down into the thread to fill the gap. It also acts as a lubricant in the process. Doesn't always work but worth a try.

Once you have the hold drilled for the easy out, heat the metal all around. Just before you try the easy out, put a few drops of water in the drill hole. That will cool the bolt and make it contract faster than the out metal. I find this works great to free them up.
@ronaldmeyer5904

Many timesa a square type easy-out will work better than a screw type. The screw type tends to tighten the threads into the hole, sometimes making it almost impossible to remove. Dad also taught me that if you can get a hole drilled thru you can use a cutting torch to cut out the steel bolt, as it will not cut the cast iron. I don't do it very often, but it does work.

What I have found is the best way to get steel bolt/plugs out of cast iron is to heat the steel to red hot, wait until it turn grayish and then use a candle stick to melt wax around the edge of the steel part. It will wick down into the threads and help it pop right out.

There is another way that I have seen used to remove a frozen bolt. I suggest that after getting the area around the bolt cherry red with a torch, you then immediately douse the bolt with cold water, this shock in reverse temperature to the metal sometimes will actually cause the bolts' male threads to free themselves from the surrounding female threads that they are frozen to. Try it, you may find it to be a good solution to a bad situation.

Nice work Keith ! Good morning. The earlier comments bout EZ outs expanding a thin walled stud are spot on. When one takes much torque I go to plan "B".... Hollow grind the end of a square piece of HSS and tap it down the hole. It will broach a square without much expansion of the stud and the thin corners let the stud distort some. I use my radial drill for "off table" jobs like this quite often. That heavy head hanging off center, is the reason it is imperative to bolt these big drills down securely, If you plan to use them in this fashion..

I removed a number of broken head bolts from Mercedes Benz diesel blocks back in the 1970s. I would grind a point on the end of a junk bolt and then weld it onto the end of the broken bolt. With everything still hot, I would then grab the bolt with a vise grips. This would suck a lot of heat out of the bolt and shrink it with respect to the engine block. They always came right out. It may seem hard to weld to the broken bolt when it's flush with the block, but not really. With ox acetylene, I could heat the broken off bolt end and add filler like building up an ice cream cone. When it was about 1/4" above the block I would weld on the junk bolt. I probably removed a dozen such broken head bolts on several engines I overhauled. I never had a bad experience doing it that way. It only takes about 5 minutes too.

The problem with them "not-so-easyouts" is that when the bolt is really stuck you've got to push pretty hard on those [broken] bolt extractors (as those should be called), which causes the outside of the bolt to expand a bit, thus increasing friction between threads (bolt and hole threads). Which is tad counterproductive, to say the least. And if you happen to be tad on a strong-arm side, and the "easyout" snaps, then... O dear... You thought you've got a problem? Ha! NOW you've got a problem... And I'm always bewildered by Keith's aversion (?) to pre-soaking things with penetrating lubricants, like diesel oil - they work great and cost next to nothing. The first, I mean REALLY first thing I'd do to that whole rust heap would bo to put it on some tray, spray it well with diesel oil or brake fluid and left it there for a week or so. There's no need to "choose" between heat and lubricants/ penetrants - in fact I often use them in combination - yes, there's some smoke and mess, but the point is not to keep your shop clean and nice smelling, but to get job done. BTW, welding washer and nut was what came first to my mind as well - plain and simple. If you get that stud out that way then the job is done, period - if not (in case that welded nut snaps) you can still do whatever drilling and milling you want. Starting with drilling and milling...? Yeah, right - "Warum einfach wenn's auch kompliziert geht", as Germans say...

I can sort of understand not using penetrants. Every time I've really struggled getting a bolt or nut with penetrant loose, once off it's shown that penetration has been fairly marginal. maybe 2 threads depth or so. So probably not enough to make a significant difference. If I have a can or bottle within reach, I'll use some. If I haven't, I'll simply go ahead anyhow. Otherwise, welding a nut on is a favourite for me too.

I use a wire wheel for cleaning parts when it makes sense ... which is about 10% of the time. For a project like this one grit blasting is the only way to go for cleaning up parts including the big casting. This is especially true if you want bare metal exposed for weld build-up to repair rust pitting or you have difficult-to-reach places that need to be cleaned. You don't need a huge blasting cabinet for larger parts either. Open-air blast outside by spreading a plastic sheet over a paved area to catch your media. Protect your lungs by using safe media like specular hematite (iron ore) that has virtually no silica and a good quality particulate mask.

I see videos of people really working at broken bolt removal. What works for me everytime is to weld a rod onto what is left of bolt with a mig welder. Not a tig, or arc. Mig. On bolts over 1/4 you need a drill a hole down middle. The unique reason for mig is that mig welds shrink. Broken bolt, studs. etc once shrunk come out way easier and the whole process takes about 15 minutes. Like it said it works for me everytime, and since I work on vintage cars all the time that is a lot of broken exhaust studs, and bolts. As long as the bolt is steel it works, even in aluminum but you have to put a guard of tin in place first.

In reference to the Easy Out situation; about 30+ years ago when I was an airframe repairman in the Army, I was issued a bolt extractor that did the same thing as an Easy Out, but this one had a 1/8" hardened rod with four or five splines on the side. After drilling a 1/8" hole, I'd tap the rod in there and use a hex-shaped fitting that slid over the splines, then twist it out with a wrench. I don't know that I've seen such an extractor before or since, but it worked great for me--better results than I've had with Easy Outs. Keith, if you can find such a device, you might want to try it out and see if it does what you need for it to do. I should imagine they come in different sizes.

Consider building a rotary platform (routissary) for that thing to mount to while you are working on it. I am sure you will need to twist and turn it several more times before this project is over.

Would a dip in your Evaporust tub help get the base ready for the spray weld? If not is there an acid wash that would clean it up? Greg

I've always loved radial arm drills expensive I saw this video it's one of my favorite! I have a radial arm drill in my shop and I may not use it all the time however it's still my favorite piece of Machinery that I own. Great video thanks for posting

Wow, it was like I was there with you when you used the "easy out". I too never had much success using them. I guess in the prefect situation, they could save some time. But they also can make a job so much harder if they snap off. It is a gamble when you use them... Glad it all worked out for you. I'll keep watching this series for sure. Thumbs Up!
