Hey Thos95, where are you in central IL? I'm from...Peoria, as if you couldn't tell.

I've drilled all the way through my bolt, and pretty much in the middle of the thing. In the course of drilling, stopping and taking pictures, I noticed that the bolt has rotated about a half-turn out. Not sure if it's getting stuck on the dirty threads or what, but my drill decided to unscrew its chuck repeatedly as it got dark, so I was done for the evening anyway.

I'm getting...somewhere.
