well i drilled and chisseld and finaly i used an easyout.i guess the chiseling helped i can`t say for sure but i did it.the easyout did the trick but i used the biggest one for the holeand it worked. then i chased the threads with a bottoming tap and put the new bolt in it.I also bought some camping stuff at a garage sale and split some more wood.the wood is tough oak so i am using a sledgehammer with 2 splitting mauls. thank you for the advice on extracting the broken boltit worked.steve
