How hard do you have to hit them? Same force as flattening a rivet? I swung pretty good and it didnt do a thing.
So it looks like i am gonna have to go buy a stud welder/puller and go to town on this thing.

Glad to see you got some .023
Im no expert by any means but is the welder set a little hot?
