    You are awesome. I had a bolt that didn't go well so I needed it removed. Came to YT to see if a solution existed and found this video. Using the logic presented I was able to create a solution with the tools I had on-hand. It wasn't pretty but I was able to get the bolts out and continue with the project. Thank you so much. Your tool would have made life easier but I needed to get the job done same-day so I made it happen.

    Do you have any tips for not getting whatever is attached to the YABR to prevent dropping it off the cliff (cordage, sling, etc) from wrapping itself annoyingly tight around the tool while you're threading it on to the spun stud?

    Where do you get the coupler?

    In the event that the cone broke free from the bolt shaft, what of tapping the wedge free of the sleeve with a punch and then fishing the sleeve and then the cone out with a hook or magnet?

      Hi Jim, if the cone breaks off, it's tough to reuse the hole. if it pulled out a ways before breaking, that method would work well. It's more likely that it will break when first starting to pull in which case you likely won't have room to tap the wedge out to fish the clip. You can drill through these with the rebar rated masonry bits available from Hilti/Milwaukee (and probably others). this does use a lot of battery and goes through bits quickly. I try to be careful not to break them, and if they do break, usually patch the hole and drill a new one.

    I've used these anchor bolts recently and have to say I don't like them. A few don't tighten and very difficult to remove

      What application are you using them in? The hardness of the base material and brand of the anchor make a lot of difference. If wedge bolts won’t tighten down, sleeve bolts, or adhesive anchors may be a better option.

      @@westernadventureinstructio9227 thanks, yes I think they would work best with pure solid concrete. I'm using them on a car port foundation. But it's this ytong concrete, not the real McCoy

      It’s called a YABR. You can find some info on Mountain Project www.mountainproject.com/forum/topic/116158404/yet-another-bolt-remover
      They’re built in small batches, and we don’t currently have any available, but if you want to be on the waiting list you can fill out this Google form forms.gle/tCNEtCksPXstYFHx9
