   What if you're on the 73rd floor? Never mind. If you only threw one out every hour or so they'd probably never catch you.

   Nice-

   I've done a similar thing with the diamond blade/grinder.  It is very dusty, but fast.  My roto hammer was unavailable at the time.

   Beats the heck out of a 10# sledge.

   Great tip!

   Forrest, where's all this great advice been? I need to coordinate my renovation schedule behind your projects so I can collect the good tips first. Nicely done!

   I agree...this guy never stops.  I try to follow along and record the ideas to use at a later date.  The Energizer Bunny has nothing on Forrest!

   The decision is always, do I want to make more dust by cutting or do I want to shake the house apart with the demo hammer....

   <shake the house apart >

   Man, you know it!  Client and husband were in and out yesterday - end of day yesterday I reassured them that 8:30-10:30 this AM would be the last of "that horrible noise" - I had asked them to run errands, or anything to get them away.

   I promised that then it would be just "normal construction noise - hammering, sawing, and cursing"!

   They laughed - maybe it helps that I watched the first Saturday Night Live there with their son in 1976.
