Meh. They're recycling all the materials, so it's not like they just
smash it to pieces.

I have no idea what that words means - but from experience, swinging a 4
lb lump hummar is... completely ineffective, actually.

When they knocked down this old garage opposite us they took the wooden/felt
roofing off by hand, then drove a digger into the brick walls repeatedly.
It looked quite fun.

Yeah - but probably harder than it looks. ;-)

My dad's sofa.
(Yes, he did ask me to do this. Said it would fit in the car easier in
pieces. After about an hour, having inflicted approximately 2% damage, I
got bored. And exhausted...)

See, we had to demolish a fireplace enclosure, and we used a good-sized
sledge and a normal claw hammer. But the materials used were chipboard
and fake stone, so it went pretty quick with those. I could hit our sofa
in particular places and not cause any damage, even with the sledge
(which I think weighs about 20 lbs).

I think I found *all* of those places... because nowhere did the hammer
do any more damage than merely ripping the fabric a bit.
I guess sofas are designed to not break too easily. ;-)
Heh - and all the times my dad told me not to jump on the sofa because
I'd break it... Mind you, I weigh a little more than 20 lbs. :-P
