Cement removal part Deux: Zee Jackhammer

Well despite Supermans generous offer of help(ummmm.....still might be taking you up on that one bud), I could not resist the sirens call of the jack hammer. I figure one days rental is worth at least a years worth of anger management classes and xanax, right?

Actually not that bad. The electric hammer doesn't hit as hard as I would like, but not having to haul in a compressor and set everything up is nice. Out of the truck and on the cement in 5 minutes. Once I cut myself a seam, I've been able to peel it away in nice chunks that can be used somewhere on the property. Still....pretty slow going. I'm going to put 6 hours on the thing and see where it gets me. The mask? I've got mild asthma, and cement dust is not good.

I asked for your advice.......and did the exact opposite. My wife doesn't call me dumbass without cause.

(p.s. I have to admit, I'm having a blast.)
