Demolition Sub-Topic?

Nathan

We had a request for a Demolition Forum on the site and I'm wondering how many of you would be interested in the topic?

Do you preform this type of work?
Would you use a forum devoted to the topic?
Is Excavation & Site Work the right main topic for Demolition to be under?

Thanks

I do sometimes get into some demolition projects, maybe a couple times a year.

I'm not sure if E&SW is the best place for demo, but we can handle it here, I don't know where else you could put it that would make sense.

We do have Wolf here now and then.

See what the other guys have to say, but it's OK w/me.

Maybe construction since not all demo is done with heavy equipment.

I'd love to have a Demo site.

I'm with young gun or Will. We all do some demo and most of it has nothing to do with Heavy equipment. I think construction would be good.

OK, I've added it under construction. Here is the link:

Thanks for the feedback!
