Hey Vince and David,
Thanks for the advice, this was very helpful. Here's what I did...
1st. Buy a breaker bar from Sears as the craftsmen brand is guaranteed for
life no matter what.
2nd. Go to OSH and buy what could best be described as a really big friggin'
steel pipe.
3rd. Combine said big friggin' steel pipe and craftsman breaker bar for a
whole lotta leverage.
Worked like a charm and I'm smiling again! Thanks so much to all who
responded, I'm back in business.
Happy New Year To All!
Andy
