    Been in that situation more than once, over the years...
    Found it a lot easier to just part a socket in half and weld in a tube or pipe...

    The poor guy gets 10 times too annal attempting to make a super deep well socket then ruins all his fine work by cold welding it together. My smallest battery impact would shear the welds on that thing on its lowest setting.
