[Alberg30] Oday portlght removal

[George Dinwiddie]

Matt,

I've always found that a 4" grinder gives me better control than a chain 
saw, or even a circular saw.  There's less fiberglass to replace.

Are you trying to salvage the frames?  Are they metal frames?  Can you 
gain any access from the outside?

 From the description you've given so far, I think I'd take a small 
sharp chisel and work my way around the perimiter of the frame, trying 
to break the bond between the frame and the cabin.

  - George
