Floor Removal
I need to cut the floors from a Minor Traveller, which tool is the best to use to leave a neat edge? I have got a compressor so can use air tools.

Re: Floor Removal
If the floors havent been covered in repair patches, then the neatest way of removing rusty panels is to drill out the spot welds. Other than that, whatever you can get into the corners- angle grinder with 1mm disc, air saw, the cut-off air tool, http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/produ ... s-riveters
or for neatness, if you can get the tool in there, aviation snips cut cleanly.

Re: Floor Removal
The easiest way is to use a special drill to remove the spot welds.

(This link does not appear to work however Googling "Cobalt Spot Weld Drill" comes up with several on ebay.)
