(So it looks like the letter L) ..snip.. I haven't actually tried this -- I didn't have to since my wing skins aren't on -- but I think it would probably work. You might not even have to heat the wrench, just put it in a vise and wail on it with a hammer... <<< I've had to do this in my line of work quite often. Wrenches are generally hardened, so heating is a must, otherwise it would just break should you "wail on it with a hammer" If there is sufficient room, put two bends in the wrench to gain leverage on the side you hold.
