I learend this from an old guy who used to break safes in banks when they would not open.(legally). if you snap a hardened bolt, im saying high tensile and its not sticking out of the hole to get an easy out on it dont worry. get a bosch masonry drill bit (the ones with the painted blue line work best) and dull the flaps a bit on the end of the drill bit with a grinder and use that to drill the high tensile bolt/stud out. it works every time for me i just helicoil the thread once the studs been drilled. Mercedes 6cyl truck engines are really prone for snapping there exhaust studs and id normally have to take the head of to sort it properly but i just do this now.

 

 

Another trick thats made me a few quid is if you snap a key in a door/ignition simply get a junior hacksaw blade and cut the little retaining pins off on either end. then have the blade with the teeth pointing towards you and grind the flat part of the blade down untill its quite thin. simply put the blade into the lock with the teeth facing you twist very slightly and the teeth grip the broken key and pull it out.

To get the smell of Rabbit off your hands after butchery then rub your hands over with a stainless steel spoon.

 

First aid tip:-

If someone has a nosebleed that won't stop then put a tourniquet round their neck**

 

 

 

**for health and safety reasons I am required to state that this is a joke and under no circumstances should a tourniquet should be placed around anyones neck unless.........oh! no, never put a tourniquet around someones neck. I know they started it but no, don't do it.
