When you get the cheater bar you aren't working towards a resolution anymore. You are working towards satisfaction.

The last pic is the same if you're trying to connect pieces.
5 is a bit excessive, cut the bolt head off with 4 then drill and re-tap the threads.

No impact driver? Satisfying and a frustration release.
that torch will leave an impact.
Soo, the crank is rated for that huge lever, doesn't break?
