I started to take the oak toilet seat off, but it's always hard when
they use the standard plastic nuts to get a hold of them. This time
it's worse because the bolt is rusted, but using my fingers and using
a vice-grip pliers, I couldn't even start it turning.
Any suggestions?
I thought of using a soldering iron to melt through the plastic? ??
Should I use an electronics iron, which might make a nice thin cut, or
should I dig out my tincrafter's iron, used for gutters etc., much
bigger?
Are the fumes poisonous?
Is a socket wrench likely to fit? I'll have to hunt for my deep
sockets.
They sell tools for this purpose. I've seen two models.

Worth buying?
The first one looks sort of flimsy and one rater said it was flimsy.
The second one was only 10.nn yesterday and now it's 12!
