I love it when bolt's are that seized.Especially when the wrench slip's, off and you bash your knuckles on some other rusty part.

If you don't come out with a wound or two you are doing something wrong.

One thing I know......I love my grinder. (Agent no need to take this one any further.)

I know when I was learning. I got pissed off at dad for always walking up, and smacking my welds with his hammer. So I welded his hammer to the door. My welds held, and he stopped annoying me.
