Ooh, also might be semi mechanics related: imagine I have a disk which is put on a ball bearing around an axle, but it got stuck, and I don’t have lots of grip on it, outside of same wd and pray, any ideas? I figured heating ball bearing is very silly, cause grease will burn :thonk:

The most effective method I’ve found is to heat up the bolt with a blow torch (or even just a candle) and then melt some candle wax into the threads.
