"New" Tool - 03/03/2019 03:36 AM
Hey folks, Mustie1 just ran a video about a "new" tool he got that seems to work very well for rusty screw removal. (New in quotes because it seems to have been out a few years.) Called "Shake-n-Break" it fits into a pneumatic air hammer. Applies pounding to screw while twisting pressure is applied to a side handle.
While nobody seems to have applied the idea to bolts, I reckon it would be worth a shot to make an adapter using an air chisel bit and say a short impact socket extension with a nut welded on stem. Would still have to modify a few sockets to, so that impact got transfered to nut head through socket, which would normally have space behind head of nut and back of socket.
I've got a HF air hammer which has seldom been out of the box. Has several bits that came with it. Might give it a try.

Update: I take it back. Can get a socket adapter. Impact socket adapter.
Think I might still want to try mzking one.
