I need to remove a coach bolt. Boringly it is spinning when I try to undo it because the timber is old and so has given a little.
I can't damage the timber and I also the nut is recessed so I can't cut the bolt away and knock it back through.
If I try to clamp it then the other side of the clamp is in the way of the nut and any angled clamping is not sufficiently powerful. Tried a drop of superglue as well but again no joy. NB the bolt and nut are new and stainless steel so I know that its not rust etc as well.
Anyone got a smart tip to help me out of this please?
Cheers
