Brass Bolt

A brass bolt holds two nuts securely screwed in place, waiting for you to manipulate them free. Remove the nuts and bolt for the finish!

The trick is that the threaded bolt is actually in two pieces, with the seam hidden in the center of the middle nut. To remove the ring, hold the head of the bolt with one hand, and press on the ring to give you enough friction to turn the thread out of the middle nut.
