Not strictly model or even chainsaw specific but I'd like to know how in the world you people deal with broken bolts. They have been driving me crazy for decades.
Over the years I've tried (with zero success) various prupose-built extractors, hacksaw and screwdriver, monkey wrenches, drill them out... whatever you can think of. I've never managed to extract a single broken bolt.
Once upon a time it wasn't a big deal: there was a nice machine shop ten miles away: just drop off the parts and they'd take care of them. But then the shop changed ownership, their job quality went off a cliff and deservedly went out of business two years later.
Yes, I know: try not to break any bolts while undoing them, no matter how stuck solid they are. But it happens sometimes. And it's d be nice to have a fighting chance instead of simply throwing parts in the scrap metal heap and heading off to eBay or the dealership.
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.
