Scotty: I thought you were a bit skeptical when I passed that on. When I was told how to do that, I know I looked at the guy as though he had two heads. I was miles from nowhere, with a 1/2" male hydraulic fitting broke off in a cylinder, and had few choises.

For those of you wondering what this is all about. On pipe broken off in a fitting, take a bare hack saw blade, put some electrical tape around middle for a handle. Make four cuts on inside of pipe, just to point of threads, in other words 1/4 it. Then using a series of cole chisels, as suits the situation, you collapse the male pipe. On the 1/2" hydraulic fitting I was doing we had to grind the back off the hack saw blade so it would fit inside the 1/2" fitting. My biggest surprise was how quick it happened.
