Same, and was pulled out several times. It's startling to watch the beach quickly recede. Swimming parallel works, and bonus is the current tends to dampen waves so it's a little easier to breathe.

Not to alarm anyone, but aerial photos sometimes show sharks lurking around the deep side of the channel that causes those currents, aka 'the buffet'. But way out. Just don't take forever swimming out of the current!

oy. up with the sun to dig before the temperature got wild. That worked but 80+%RH and orange AQI. Moving sloooow and drinking water like a crazy person.

That's a great idea. Instead I'm only taking out one at a time, counter sinking and replacing. Making room for a French cleat to hold up a sliding panel. Need the bolt heads flush.

@Alfred How can I test the stability of the structure after removing bolts? Will I need some heavy machinery? Please say yes.

@AskTheDevil definitely remains to be seen. They're only targeting smaller markets so apparently early days

@Alfred With a reassuring tone tell me it's totally fine too remove some bolts from foundation girders in a residential structure. Thanks in advance.

When you want to make an omelet you have to remove girder bolts.

Look, they're in the way just trust me. It's fine. Nothing can go wrong.

I am gritting my teeth, can you hear it? Sorry.

Heart warming as that story is libraries have to weed* and there are great ways to do it like give the books to Better World Books, which will even send giant cardboard crates. The books go where they are needed.

BURNING them? BURN...know what, I'm gonna just do some breathing exercises right now.

@DJNoneYa I wouldn't think anyone with lastname:=Kennedy would be in a hurry to invite inspection of their personal history.
Maybe he's a masochist, no shame in it.
