Losing my shit!

It’s defo going the right way, the main problem is trying to keep the BB tool in place while I administer the breaker bar. Normally I’d use a washer and bolt to keep it in. I’ve soaked it in RP 90 so will have to wait now. Hopefully it’ll loosen so I can use regular ratchet and hold it in by hand.
Bolt it in and hit the wrench with a hammer?
 
You could try using a wheel qr through the axle if it's hollow to help hold the washer in place? It's a thought that just occurred to me, as I use the bolt and washer method.
 
Just an update, after soaking in penetration oil over night, I managed to snap the 1/2 drive off my breaker bar. Which probably says more about the quality of the bar than my strength! So I’m carrying on with the soaking. Next attempt will be a big ratchet with a length of Scaff tube over the handle.
