... the problem I ran into though was that the framing for those beds had been secured to the inside wall by running screws through from the outside before the trailer's outer wall had been installed. This may be a common construction technique but of course I didn't realize it at the time so when I finally did manage to pull that bed framing free it left some pretty large holes in the trailer's interior sidewall where the screw heads pulled through the interior wall paneling.westend wrote:
Instead of pulling the fasteners through the framing, you could have cut them with a reciprocating saw.
True, but as I already said - "... but of course I didn't realize it at the time". Even if I had I don't own a reciprocating saw anyway ... didn't then back in 2007 and still don't. :W
Gotcha.
I thought I'd throw the saw idea out there in case the OP runs into a similar situation.
FWIW, I have an 18V cordless set and picked up the saw for it a couple of years ago. It cuts where others won't. It also shines for cutting in electrical boxes in drywall. All the dust seems to remain inside the wall. Very nifty tool.
