What do you think? Could i save my bolts with one of these techniques???







Hmmm, maybe not!!

PS The bolts are from an old hinge of a large shed door!

Ooerr! They look like all the bolts on the underneath of my twelve year old Mondeo.

What happens if you rebuild them with weld then a lick of hammerite. Clean up the thread by running the die up it and off you go!
