LFD Serie 2000 number 8 while banging on a couple of heat-corroded bolts in the pottery kiln. I have tried penetrating oil to no avail, so the next step is cutting the bolt head down from 11/16ths to 3/8ths to get some bare metal for the socket wrench. Any wrenches with a better idea, please let me know.Oh, and excellent LFD cigar.
5/8ths??
And brake fluid will sometimes works when a lot of things sold as penetrating oil won’t. Is it in a safe position that burning off the corrosion would be an option?

Re: Whatcha smokin tonight?
Both cigars have citrus notes, how do you like Espinosa Laranja which has a milder orange citrus note?

Re: Whatcha smokin tonight?
A lot of people have an above-average sensitivity to certain flavors, and those flavors appear exaggerated. I know someone who can't stand a raisin note in his cigars. A friend strongly dislikes apricot flavors in coffee, and the flavor he says is apricot registers as something else to me. Maybe this one and the Group of Five have a similar thing going on, hey?

@Rdp77 Oh. My mistake.I am overtired and have brain fog too. I am just taking a 1/16th offI will give brake fluid a try. May try a torch to see if it will work with the rust. If nothing else the heat may help. The kiln gets up to 2300 so no problem heating the bolt up.
Thanks for the tips.

If you are really hard up I have seen this stuff called Kroil do amazing things at work. It is expensive and not often sold where other penetrating oils are sold. Amazon has it but be prepared to pay.

Didn’t even make it through the first 1/3. Not for me. Right up there with the burnt grapefruit cigar.
Just a short follow up….I’ve smoked every cigar by plasencia and this is the first I didn’t like…by a lot. In My Humble Opinion.

Limnology is the scientific study of inland waters, including lakes, rivers, streams, ponds, wetlands, and groundwater. It encompasses the study of physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of these water bodies, as well as their interactions with their surrounding environment.
