Exothermic Slice torch For the Win????

Hey guys, This was a tough one. I was expecting a 3-4 round fight but this one went all 12 rounds!! I get called out to remove stuck pins on a semi regular basis so I feel pretty comfortable with this process and the normal effort it takes to get these out. However, there is always an exception to the norm. Once in a while you'll get challenged by a seemingly easy opponent but then get gut checked from your overconfidence. Good wake up call. So, follow along as we struggle to get this pin dislodged from where it seems to have been since the machine was new. It put up the toughest fight I have had involving one of these in all my years of business. Believe it or not, I used 69 exothermic slice torch rods on this pin. That is way more than usually necessary. That being said, I will show another video of this same process in the future so you can see what I mean. They normally aren't this tough. So, sit back, grab the popcorn and enjoy an overly long video. Thanks for the support.
