- I'd be worried about my lungs. I imagine there'd be lots of fibrous dust. Bad for you and your tool. What about busting it with a hammer into smaller pieces? Maybe an air chisel and wide-blade implem

- My Thoughts. Don't do it! By all means strip and sell the fittings. But then with the hull: List it on ebay - for $5 - someone might take it away and save you the trouble of cutting it up! Or even ke

- At the risk of being overly pedantic, if you do decide to cut it up yourself, I would recommend using a respirator, and not just a mask. I used a mask with fiberglass, and still wound up with some lu
