  1. I've got an ISIS BB that has a crank on it, but I can't budge the crank bolt, and yes I'm turning it the right way! Any tips on freeing it up?

  2. One of these days, I've just got to have a look in your shed, must be similar to mine.

    The usual metal working suggestions:

    Liquid Wrench
    Put a pip over end of tool to increase leverage
    Hit end of wrench/tool with a hammer
    switch to electric tool
    switch to pneumatic tool
    Blow Torch to expand outer shell
    Drill/saw mf-ing thing out
    Toss everything in rubbish bin
