Picture a climbing tree stand. The screw knob that attaches the cable that goes around the tree screws over a bolt. The inside of the knob is metal threads. I have one that is so damn stuck! I just got the stand today from a buddy. It's older and has sat in an out building for a couple years, the bolt and knob are rusted together. He tried WD40, my Father swears by Fluid Film. I have put so much damn Fluid Film on it, tried putting it in a vise and hammering on it, etc. What are some suggestions? Can't heat it because there are plastic washers in it.

PB Blaster works pretty well if you let it soak for a day or two.

Never heard of it, what is it exactly? I already chipped a piece off of the plastic outer on the knob. If I break it, I know a guy at Ameristep and could drive over there and get one, but rather not break it.

Thanks. I may just have to make a trip to Chinamart tomorrow if it doesn't break free when I go out there tomorrow.

Just read the reviews on the link and it sounds like what I need. I like the comment one guy made about why is everything not good for pregnant women known in the state of California. Why don't any other states know this? I have also wondered this. ;D

The old man works at Carquest and everything is dicounted for him. I'll have to ask him if they have it, but the link said $3 something at Chinamart. I HATE spending a penny there though. I was just looking at the pics on the fishing boards. Still can't get over how engorged that pike was with smelt you caught at Gull.
