What happens here

The presenter next demonstrates removing a severely rounded stud from the demo block. He hammers a Grip Edge external extractor onto the stud. The tool immediately locks on tightly, providing absolute control to work the stud back and forth in both forward and reverse directions. This capability is crucial for breaking free rusted or seized studs. The presenter successfully shears the stud off the demo block with no slipping, emphasizing the strength and secure engagement of the Grip Edge extractor. He notes that the extractor leaves distinct bite prints on the stud, confirming its deep engagement.

Goal: Successfully remove a severely rounded stud and illustrate the deep, bi-directional engagement of the extractor.
