Since the handle end of my wrenches don't have openings to insert anything into I tried to squeeze them toward each other with a large wood clamp, but they just bent until there was no more clamping force to use. Luckily I have a good solid crescent wrench, some thick lumber and a very heavy carpentry hammer. I sandwiched one board between the nut wrench and a cement wall, I lowered the blade just low enough to engage another board in front of the blade, and after a few hard blows the nut finally came free. My saw is new, so the over-tightening was from the factory. I'm glad the extra money I spent on a new blade didn't go to waste. Thanks for getting me thinking.
Will make my 1st blade chg tomorrow. I was thinking 2 myself, I bet it will b hard 2 get off. Better check youtube 4 stuck blade videos. Thx so much 4 sharing. I have a broom handle sitting nearby. Brilliant!
Totally worked! Thank you. I was too lazy to grab my pipe clamp so I used my least favorite bar clamp (I'm looking at you, Lil Slippy) but it still did the job.
I tried this and the wrench that came with my little DW745 actually expanded....I think I need a stronger wrench!!!🙄🙄 (PS: I have also tried adding WD40 but no luck; I might try my heatgun next...other than that, I think I might buy a new table saw 😅)
Great video, but my problem is a little different. I was able to remove the arbor nut, but behind it is a flange. THAT is what's keeping the blade stuck, and unfortunately with the nut off I have nothing to grip with the 2nd wrench. Any ideas on what I could try?
Hmmm, potentially a heat gun and some light hammer taps. Changing temps can get things moving. If the table saw is in a hot environment you could also try cooling the stuck piece, there is a product plumbers and mechanics use to rapidly cool something to get it to move, it comes in a aerosol spray can at the home store. Good luck!!

Thank you for making this video. This worked for me when I was struggling to get the nut off.
Thank you. Smaller stable saw I used a long clamp arm.
You made my day. I was getting pretty frustrated and your solution worked like a charm. Thank you so much.
I am so glad I could help! I was in your same shoes when I came up with this idea and made a video on it!

This helped us out today! Thanks for the tip!
Thanks brother. Just used this technique. Appreciate the video!

Thanks for this tip; really came in handy! I didn't have a pipe clamp but a wooden dowel worked.
Glad it helped! Really anything that will help you get some leverage will do!

I certainly have a few bar clamps that like to slip. Glad the video was helpful!
Thank you! You made my day. This work great for me and all I need was a broom handle.
Excellent - i just used this trick to remove a stuck arbor nut. Thank you so much
Excellent!
Thanks! I was getting frustrated. Worked like a charm!
Very good instruction, and very smart. Thanks.
Saved my afternoon. Great tip
what type of wrenches are those again. I need two! Your idea is fantastic!!!!
They are the ones that came with the saw, I don’t know if you can buy them individually.
Thank you my blade is bent after lending it to a buddy and it did really help me out
Your buddy better buy you a new blade!
Also… how do you bend a table saw blade??
What do you do then if it won't come free?

Where do you get those arbor wrenches? I lost mine.
Thanks - worked like a charm and didn't have a pipe like you showed - only a metal thick stake for horseshoes.
Thanks! Anything to get some leverage and get the initial push to get the nut turning will do it!
Very smart! Thanks for sharing the tip!
Glad it was helpful!
No way... Let me see.
Oh my god you are a genius.

Thanks will try this.
This is very smart but I have 1 question, what about when u have 1 nut bc the table saw is belt fed
Also it's a small tablesaw
Thanks for checking out the video. Unfortunately I do not know enough about belt fed saws to give you a good answer.
That's alright, I think I may have found something that worked anyways, thanks for the help!
Completely Bogus Video..
