What is double nutting?

[StageLeft]

I hear this term sometimes. Well I just have read it a few times, but really what is it?

It's when you get two nuts in one night.

 

[Antisocial Virge]

Tightening two nuts against each other. It locks both them in place.

sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't

I've seen references to the technique being used to remove things, how would it do that?

This is correct. Put bolt through hole. Screw nut on and tighten. Screw second nut on and tighten against first nut.

If you are trying to remove a stud, screw one nut on and leave loose. Screw second nut on and tighten against first nut using two wrenches. Place wrench on first nut and unscrew the stud.

Remember, righty tighty, lefty loosey.

It could still go very awry.

At least the real question has been answered so that's out of the way.

I have it on good authority that "The Anal Retentive Mod" has had his finger poised over the "lock" button ever since he read the title of this thread.
