Some of you may be familiar with Alden's "Drill-Out", which is a combination reverse drill bit and broken bolt extractor (also sold under the Craftsman name). Some of you may also have uncomplimentary things to say about them but I like them because they're self-centering, which makes them a bit more foolproof when removing a broken bolt that has snapped off below the surface of a casting in an uncomfortably-oriented place.
Anyway, they seem to be available only up to 1/2". I need to remove a couple of broken 5/8" bolts and wondered whether anyone had come across a similarly-constructed thing at larger sizes. Thanks.
