I'm really looking forward to showing that to my friends. Are you going to post the video of me and someone else racing through the walls with the Fubar?

(See me near-miss Sean with one at about the 2:56 point.) That said, though, I'm not sure the recip would be faster. You'd still have to get the paneling off before you could cut out studs -- and after the practice I got knocking this thing down, I bet I could remove studs faster with the FuBar. Either way it's still a lot of fun. :) KMR: It also would’ve been easier to go inside and kick the panels out — if you didn’t get knocked in the head with a stud.

Looks to be much more useful to carry into a burning building than a maul, though my real preference would still be a good set of irons. Of course now that I'm no longer on the line doesn't mean I won't run out and buy on for myself, I just won't be able to justify it as easily.

This just looks like a lot of wasted labor, this is why we have power tools!
