Door hinge pin removal
I have one last stubborn door hinge pin to remove. I borrowed a hinge pin removal tool. I have heated the hinge and tried rust removal fluids and the tool won’t budge the hinge pin. I feel my next step may be to drill it out, but then I’m worried I won’t be able to drill it straight and may damage the hinge. Possibly I could have a bad tool? It appears when it gets tight I may be getting excessive friction from the heads of the nuts of the tool? Is there a recommended brand of tool? Can I take the door to a machine shop and they may have a hydraulic press? Thanks for any input.
