    I’m the designated jar opener in my family, if they bring it to my couch while I’m watching the news, I’m sure I can get it open in a couple seconds. Then they can say the customary thank you, which is “oh, I must have loosened it.” and then leave.

      “oh, I must have loosened it.” and then leave.

      I take the jar, open it, say “That was easy, here, you try” before putting the lid back on really tight.

      You gotta run it under the tap for a minute first, to help loosen it up.

    Multiple combination wrenches (spanners). Most other brute force methods are obviously out.

    Use a hex bit on the bolt, one small wrench to grip the bit and chain a few wrenches together for leverage. They will wrap around in an approximate circle for a small space.

    A little WD-40 should take care of it!

        A sign they shouldn’t over-torque fasteners of course.

    Just put a length of scaff tube on the end of the spanner….lean into it real good.

    If that fails it must be time for the BFH

    If that fails get a BBFH

    Then Scaff tube again

    Then call old mate to smash it with a BBBFH while you lean on the scaff tube.
