To me instead of the solar route would just be easier to turn it on during the day and off at night.

Didn’t have a multi tool and the new flooring is getting installed tomorrow morning, I thought it was going to be a quick tear out. I was using ear protection but it sucked for my wife and kids.

This shit wasn’t coming up for anything. If it was in the twin towers, they might have been still standing.

My wife is doing a Polar Express day tomorrow with her 1st graders. So last night I was cutting train cutouts out of 1" Styrofoam insulation board. I was too cheap to buy a hot knife so a pair of vice grips holding a razor blade did the trick. The depth and thin blade worked better that my utility knife. The tip of my finger is still numb from starting out holding the blade with my hand...haha.

What kind of flooring is going back in?The shithead used a ton of construction adhesive to glue down the tack strip
If carpet just leave it
Construction adhesive is no joke, I don’t know if it will be any better than a hammer and chisel but they make scraper blades that fit a sawzall. That’s what I used to get all of the thinset hardy backer off my floor when I removed the tile.

We ended up going with LVP. I was going to post this in another thread but forgot. That’s the new flooring under Harrison’s new birthday present from my mother in law.

Looks great!
Another thing that may help chip up the tack strip would be a long handles scraper. A little speed and weight sliding into the edge of the strip might make light work of it.

Now that you have a jeep you just need a race car and a SXS, you’ll have the complete set of expensive hobbies.

That’s what the flooring guy used to finish off what I couldn’t get. Took him like 5 minutes
I was just trying to save 300 bucks, wasn’t worth it

Thanks, I’m really happy with the floor! Now we will finish out the house. Didn’t want to do the whole house to realize we wanted a different color or style.Floor looks great… sweet ride he’d got there.
That Jeep is sweet! I played with it first
