Demolish My Shed

In the next few weeks, the decrepit shed behind the fan house is going to be decommissioned and replaced. Twas originally a 1 car garage from the 1940s that the previous owner chopped in half. It has served us well, but it is clearly time to put it out of its misery.

Thought I'd poll the creative minds at Redszone.com to see what the best way to take down the shed would be.

If anyone has any other ideas that I haven't thought of, by all means put them out there as possibilities.

Edit: In case it matters, it's 12' x 9', with a pitched roof that peaks at about 11'. Part is on a concrete slab. 1 Window and 1 Door. All wood. What's left of it, anyway...

Re: Demolish My Shed

Why not hire this kid to do it?

If not, it appears that a crowbar works much better than a baseball bat, garden hoe, or one's sneakers.

Re: Demolish My Shed

Find a wolf and three pigs. Put the pigs inside the shed.
As long as the shed consists of hay or sticks, nature will run its course.

Three big friends, three sledge hammers, one case of beer. And unlike with most tasks, the beer comes first.
That puppy will be down by lunch.

Re: Demolish My Shed

Let me know what measures you take because I have two sheds on my property that need to come down by next summer, and my wife took away my pyrotechnics.

Re: Demolish My Shed

Have GAC come over, hand him a power tool of some sort, and tell him to fix it. Natural luck will take over and bang!...down comes the shed. Should only cost you a sixer of Warsteiner.

I'm also bonded in case there would be an accident.

Re: Demolish My Shed

action movie but you it would be cool to get M Knight Shamalan to write up a short movie for you to film that will involve ghosts and the end conclusion being that the shed was really a unicorn in disguise or maybe never even existed and it was just a part of your subconscious. I hate that guy

Wow, that was frightening. Needless to say, young Nick wasn't the sharpest tool in that shed.

That said, disco inferno would be my choice. Burn baby burn.
