> [@Getting out of Jury Duty](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/getting-out-of-jury-duty/49521/23): > > correct me if im wrong but in sure when u heat somthing it can also harden. and if you get a tiny screw to hot you may just break it off. if you heat around it and your quick u can get it before the heat transfers. ive heated 1/4 bolts with no problems It only hardens it if you heat it then cool it quickly. If you heat it and let it slowly cool, it will soften the metal (this is talking just your run of the mill steel). Just a couple weeks ago I have to drill out 8 M8 set screws and it was a nightmare at first. Threw some heat at them til they were cherry red, let them cool, and they drilled like butter. ---
