That is the easy way to burn the bolts off that hold the rotted deck on without having to worry about hot metal falling on you :cry:

Glad to see you are making good use of
your Shield Bantam crane. Is that a
bomb trailer hanging there?
I drove through Waverly Iowa last
week where the Bantams where built.
There is a small Shield Bantam exhibit
in the town museum.

Yes, that is one of my M5 Bomb Trailers. I only got 5 years out of the wooden deck :x This time pressure treated with strips of tar paper between the PT and the metal...
