    I've found that when you heat up the post from underneath either with a soldering iron tip or a small torch, by the time it gets hot enough to loosen the locktite, the wood around it gets scorched/burnt!

    I've found it is easier to simply go ahead and snap off the bolts and buy new screws and T-nuts. Then it's much easier in the future.
