The finger that puts the pressure on the rope and chain snapped off, with half the bolt. I found the replacement part on the web, but I need to get the half bolt out of the threaded hole it is screwed into. I tried drilling it out and now the bolt is still in, with a hole in the middle. Any suggestions?

Mine just did this. Could I ask how you got the broken part out?
