    Been doing just this for over 30 years. But you should dress the new end of the thread too

  • @michaelyount3176
    @michaelyount3176 6 місяців тому

    And another tip - clamp the bolt head in the vice, not the threaded end. The cut piece is un-needed so when it falls to an unreachable/unknowable spot under the work bench as the cut off piece always seems to do, it won't matter. And - the cut bolt in the vice will cool off a bit quicker because of heat transferred into the vice....so handling it sooner is safer. FWIW - I have used this trick for a long time - but I also dress/taper the threads on the tip a bit to make it easier to start.

  • @298CRE8
    @298CRE8 6 місяців тому

    Use guards use a file or grinder if all else but buy a taper but for your drill run it on after cutting it tapers cleans initial thread removing any damaged parts nut and bolt cut the file if by hand and hacksaw is efficient and steady but use a guard when cutting bolts no reason not too 😂👌🤔🫡 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 just cutting and not tapering on stainless will gall it up quicker don't do it or regret it binding halfway on or off 🫣🤔🫡

    • @builtbyblokes
      @builtbyblokes 6 місяців тому

      My mains grinder has a guard on but the battery one doesn’t as the discs are to big to fit. This is just a quick way of doing it. I’d never do with stainless as like you say they will definitely bind up and ruin the thread. I would absolutely be using a taper but if I had one!

  • @rickbechtel2835
    @rickbechtel2835 6 місяців тому

    Seriously ! Just cut the bolt to length, and dress the end with a grinder or file. Just unscrewing the nut will roll the thread straight but without a taper the squared off threads will be difficult to start.
