rustler…cant tighten it as it spins (not too freely but it wont tighten any more)
lovewookie….got a feeling drilling will jusat make it spin but will try, failing that its get every tool out the box and try to destroy nut part or at least be able to get grip on it with pliers. Cut chain ring next if that fails
Those FSA chainring bolts using 5 and 6mm keys sound very practical, will be purchasing four of them and throwing chainring bolt tools away!!
It may well spin, you may also be able to get enough purchase on it with your chainring bolt peg tool (as the drill will be spinning quite quick) maybe, or you could wedge a screwdriver in the back of it and put that in the vice to hold, that may stop it spinning.
I had this a few weeks ago whilst replacing my outer chainring, although it was quite embarrassing as I was demonstrating to a class in ‘how to strip your drivetrain’ didn’t quite work, but at least I showed them afterwards how to solve the problem via dremel.
