Purchased - bolt/screw extraction stuff

Proposal Type:
Micro

Proposer:
Peter Roberts - woodwork

Description:
I currently have a few related issues in woody I can’t solve easily:

  • The handle on the mortiser isn’t screwed in properly; but the bolt is sheared off, so it can’t be.

  • The depth stop on the dewalt mitre saw isn’t available because it’s a bolt that sheared.

  • I want to replace the blade on the parkside plunge saw, but it’s jammed in. (I’ve put penetrating oil on it so may have more luck next time I try)

Proposed Purchase:
https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/laser-3-10mm-hex-extractor-set/
https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/cht526-12pce-drill-screw-extractor-s/

These seem fine, but I don’t have experience of either of these tools, so if anyone does and can suggest better please do.

Proposed Installation:
I propose these go into maintainer storage. Not against buying two sets, but I think at least one should be available exclusively for maintaining space tools

Budget:
£46.78

Heck yeah, sounds good, I had a nightmare removing a screw recently so this would be handy in the future
