Hello,
New member here. Could anyone drill out a bolt for me that's broken off inside a small metal bar? It's part of a folding adult trike - the broken bolt holds one of the back wheels out. Willing to pay someone to do it, as it's a task I haven't tried before, and I haven't done inductions yet on the machines.
I've already unscrewed the bar from the rest of the frame, so it's quite small and manageable - 210 x 15 x 40 mm (w x d x h), with square edges, so it can be clamped into a worktop vice.
I've already tried a LH drill bit and bolt extractor, but the bolt stub hasn't shifted at all. I gather that the next step needed is to carefully drill out the bolt, and then retap the threads. I have the same exact bolt to replace it, so the threads can be gauged from that.
Is anyone available who could to do this? I'm hoping within the next week if possible.
Thanks very much, Hello,
