I would squirt WD40 down the chuck, clamp the bit in a vice, then keep tugging till it comes out.

A wood bit in an impact driver!

Wood bit in a vice, reverse the driver and hope for the best...

And why would you use a wood bit in an impact driver?

 

[Deleted member 26818]

A lot of these spade bits fit impact drivers.
I think some are even designed to be used in them?

Throw the whole thing away to remind you to use the right drill

A couple of pairs of pipe grips... one on the bit holder, one on the bit and try to turn the bit in the opposite direction to that in which it was last used.

Anyone ever had a long SDS bit totally jammed in a stone/granite type wall - and abandoned it ??

Sort of.
Guy I was working with tried to drill through a bank vault wall and got the bit caught up in the mesh.
Had to cut off the bit with an angle grinder and start a anew.

Sort of here as well!
I got a 20mm sds bit stuck in a stone wall of a house tried the usual tricks and it wouldn't come out sooo I borrowed a heavier drill off a mate and went and snapped the bit off about half way down it. Left half of it in the wall. It must of had a weak point in the bit and decided enough was enough!

No but there’s a four inch core bit in a stone wall in South Wales, if any one fancies it I’ll pm the post code.

Is it the core, or the mandrel?
Is it diamond?

Coincidentally, I bought a set on Armeg impact drill bits this morning and used them to fit a radiator this afternoon.

Really impressed, just having to take one tool can make a big difference with reactive maintenance jobs, especially in city centres.

Yes, no, yes.

It’s two foot inside a tithe barn wall.

Be a real find for the Time Team of the future.

I was drilling down through my concrete kitchen floor behind the kitchen cabinets to replace the water main and got a 3ft 20mm drill bit stuck but eventually managed to get it free by using a 25mm drill bit and drilling down beside it, at some cost to the 25mm bit, but I had spent two days getting that far and was not going to try again.

That could get a bit hairy

 

[freddo]

I can usually get the drill bits out ok, it's the cable rods that seem to get stuck, left quite a few behind now.
