Melt a little wax (from a candle) onto the threads and the wax will wick its way up into the nut, providing some lubrication.
Let it cool a little and then the nut should come off without too much trouble.
If the bolt heads are carriage bolts and they start to turn in the wood, take a thin cutoff wheel and grind a slot into the bolt head. Then, you can use a big screwdriver to hold it in place.
Cheers, Dean | | |
