In the West Wing the previous had several pieces of equipment bolted to the floor. These bolts stuck 2 1/2 inches up and were always tripping us up. We knew they were there and we would be high stepping with boxes and still find them with our toes.
Two of the bolts are in the right place for Bill's table saw and there is electricity hanging down to hard wire it. But how to get rid of these stupid, toe stubbing, foot tripping bolts.
First idea; use a grinder and grind them off at floor level and knock them out with a hammer. Took forever with sparks flying and safety glasses needed.
Aha-a-a! a sledge hammer.
With a mighty swing; actually four mighty swings per bolt and those babies are pushed down into the floor, out of the way and Bill feels like Hercules.
