Ian - GM3SKE - was mentioning Bosch as an inventor of the hammering ... and,
I am here to tell you, their electric jackhammer worky worky as to getting
rid of a tower base you want to "discapeeer" when you move, or put the home
up for sale... Simply lay in a supply of super cold Bud, Miller, Coors,
or .. room temp Guinness .. rent the Bosch .. and then "whup it" on the base
you worked so hard on a few years back ... chisel away, down to as low as
you feel comfortable with leaving as your eternal marker .. sometimes 6",
or maybe down to even a couple feet... =];?} -- Depends ... how far down
from the property's asking price were you "chiseled" .. HIHI .. the
proper chisel bit will even chop off the buried tower legs, if that was how
you installed ... remove that concrete debris, and cover over with topsoil
.. bye bye tower base... and, if you were "taken" on the real estate
deal, you can awaken in the wee hours of a later spring morn, with the
vision -- rototiller ... ha .. you got it! The general populace does not
see your tower base as a "feature" .. so don't try to promote it as such
when huckstering your real estate... unless you know to whom you are
pitching this exquisite hunk of concrete! .. Actually, as to removal, you
really should do more better than this, -- B U T ... .. .... been there,
done that .. 73, Y'all ...Mark Nelson - AA6DX
