Hammer Impact Breaker Bar DIY BUILD

Impact leverage in tight spots.

After Thoughts about the Video: Works fantastic. The length of the stubby arm plays hugely into the force/leverage you can apply. However too long and it starts flexing and getting into the way. I settled on 3" from center of bolt to center of 1/2" socket. I just need to build a 3/8" version.

I saw the thumbnail and said the same thing.

[@markmaherr]

I posted a similar "I'm 20 seconds in " and then once I posted I read yours. We all need to go weld one up

I'm 2:00 in and I was like, man I need a dog 😆

You should put a patent on that

I have a very similar tool to the Toledo, T+E, Laser Tools versions, I bought it pretty cheap many years ago on ebay. 2ft long 1/2inch drive. Only real difference is the black square drive head doesn't pivot, it's fixed 90° to the handle/hinged part👍

[@sixtyfiveford]

That's going to be fun to have it back together.

[@joels7605]

This is brilliant. I'm going to make this, but with a threaded end so I can attach my slide hammer. That'll let me go in the opposite direction. Well done, sir. Thank you.

[@sixtyfiveford]

Sounds great!

[@littlepaddy7444]

Interesting concept, good work. Thanks

[@jimmulone2422]

There is a tool already available (or it was years ago) I bought one it was marketed for breaking free crank bolts especially on FWD Hondas. I can’t remember who made it but I think it was Lisle or some “off” brand Any still a great idea and I can appreciate the effort in making the tool and then video. Thank you

[@laumuseka]

I swear you are smarter than 99% of actual engineers. And I wouldn’t be surprised if a part of that is because you’ve had to outsmart them to fix things as well as you do. This is a genuinely genius idea!

[@ThriftyToolShed]

Excellent idea! That will be very handy to have around for sure!

[@mudgyver5205]

If it loosens really tight bolts then you have created magic. As always thanks for sharing.

[@Rein_Ciarfella]

Someone else here mentioned your paint can shaker video and I just remembered some things I did to augment that when I fabricated my own. I used lids of various sizes, cut off cans with a safety can opener so there were no sharp edges. Used multiples of those to beef up the attachment to the central bolt instead of washers because the additional lids distribute the force over a larger area. I drilled a hole in one of my overhead beams to screw it into the beam so it’s always right there overhead next to my bench. I also use multiple sections of scrap rubber membrane roofing to wrap around various spray cans to secure them inside the shaker so I can invert it if I feel the need. I’ve found that being able to hold the can in a vertical, horizontal or inverted orientation helps to get the shaker ball inside to act upon more of the contents. I’m currently working on other iterations of this tool utilizing smaller cans to accommodate paint pens, which also require vigorous shaking before use.

[@HFG]

That's pretty awesome

[@sixtyfiveford]

It does exist but not well known at all.

[@Morrisonspouch]

@@sixtyfiveford I’m from Australia so maybe more known down there. Best tool for crank bolts prior to impact guns and now they are having a comeback with how narrow the access is to a lot of bolts nowadays. I like your videos

Great Tool! So many times I could have used this. Years ago had a combine that had lots of bearing issues, in very hard to reach spots. This tool would have been perfect

[@georgedonner9099]

Pretty cool tool. Love your ingenuity Moe.

[@Wil_Liam1]

I found out a long time ago that frozen,or stuck bolts and nuts often came loose when hammering on the tool right where it wraps around the fastener.. Apparently the impact or shocking helped to jar it loose like an impact does.. Another great idea there Moe !

Nice!! We had something similar at work that had interchangeable wrench ends instead of the breaker bar side to remove fan hubs. You could also use either a hammer or an air hammer to impact the other end. I think the breaker bar end makes it waaay more useful!

[@spasticmuse4262]

Hadn't thought about thread depth as it relates to fastener strength... tucking that gem of wisdom into my hat! In my defense, during most of my professional work a 1/4" fastener was considered to be BIG! I dealt with mostly #6, #4 and smaller.

[@zlindauer5315]

And all this time, i thought fine threads were stronger because of more surface area! Coler me embarrassed! Thank you, Mr 65ford!!

[@simonilett998]

Nice job👍 I have a 2ft long, 1/2inch drive version of this tool I bought on ebay many years ago, it wasn't too pricey, only difference is mine has a fixed drive at 90° where you used the pivoting style breaker bar head, so your's is actually a bit more useful for leverage when flipped out straight. I've used mine a few times for front crank bolts, flywheel bolts and transmission bolts in tight spots and it works great. I've been trying to think of what to make from a 2ft breaker bar handle, which I broke the head off a while ago. This video gives me a good idea, I think I might make a 3/8 version out of it, like you mentioned👍

P.S. I forgot Matt love all your inventions inspires me to keep thinking. You made another excellent invention 🔧⚒👍

[@tomjeffersonwasright2288]

Good idea. From the thumbnail, I thought you were putting a slide hammer on the shaft, like a dent puller. Your build has the option for bigger hammers, is better.

[@bigd2203snuffy]

Definitely need to build one of these things! I have one of the indexable head ratchets from hobo freight. It didn't survive a few taps of the hammer. Ended up finding a fan clutch remover, It attaches to the air hammer with interchangeable wrenches. They have a hook on the end, Amazon $50 saved the day.

[@YummyFood-ov7bg]

[@bobbylibertini]

Why are these not commercially available?!!!!! Genius idea! [Sam Kinison voice] Oh..OH...OHHhh!!!!!!!! (Like another commenter said, I have got to get a welder!)

[@JDeWittDIY]

This is a great idea! I vote we call it the "slugging breaker bar" (like slugging wrenches). Also, Moe, you should contact a manufacturer and hook them up with the idea. This needs to be a tool that's available for purchase.

[@ShadowOfADaemon]

Great idea. Had a simulare idea i've been using for years, hit the end of the powerbar/ratchet with a soft face hammer or small deadblow. No sparks/metal flakes/sharp edges left on tooing/ lower noise impulse

[@ShadowOfADaemon]

might be usful if you are looking to design a product to incorperate something link Mastercraft Breaker Bar With Ratchet Head. It would allow you to have a fast reset from realy stuck bolts or nuts
