My garage door has been bricked up from within, so the door frame is full of mortar and concrete blocks. I now need to remove the timber that is partially embedded in the wall.
This is tough, because it is full of large and small nails, which I have not been able to identify very well with a small metal detector. So I have destroyed a nice wood chisel already, not knowing there was a nail in the way.
Can anyone advise me on how to get this done? I am thinking that maybe a diamond cutting wheel in my 5-inch angle grinder could hack the wood and nails up enough that it would then be easy (ish) to lever out what is left. Especially if I cut at an angle to the surface. Do you think that would work?
Thanks, David P.
