catbirdseat Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 They done went and destroyed a perfectly good boulder. Chemicals used to destroy 8 x 12 boulder in Seattle. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 Dissappointing. I thought Colorado was now missing a town. Quote
Alpine_Tom Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 Boy, that Betonamit sounds like cool stuff! I hope it's regulated; I could see people having some real inappropriate fun with it. Quote
catbirdseat Posted December 8, 2006 Author Posted December 8, 2006 Not everyone has a 1" rock drill that can go completely through 10 ton boulder. Quote
Alpine_Tom Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 I imagine it'd do the same thing to concrete or brick, right? Imagine what it could do to, say, one of those big supports under I-5 along Eastlake. Or, someone's concrete foundation. Quote
counterfeitfake Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 You'd have to drill the holes first. And I bet it's really expensive. Using it would definitely be harder than the alternatives. Quote
cj001f Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 Dissappointing. I thought Colorado was now missing a town. How would we know what to wear, how to think, or what to climb without it? Our beacon of brightness shining strong in the wilderness shall not be lost! Quote

chucK Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 $65/5 kg bucket. No licenses or permits required! Depending on how much it expands, you might be able to do some pretty serious damage by filling up a few adjacent expansion joints with the stuff. Quote
catbirdseat Posted December 8, 2006 Author Posted December 8, 2006 Make new trad routes with the stuff. Make a saw cut and fill with the expando stuff. Add water. Crack widens. Repeat. Quote
kix Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Kix won't be happy about this. I felt a great disturbance in the force. bet it didnt even have any moss on it. Quote

catbirdseat Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 Kix won't be happy about this. I felt a great disturbance in the force. bet it didnt even have any moss on it. It was destroyed shortly after it was unearthed. It is analogous to infanticide. Quote
EWolfe Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Plus, getting it out...can you say chipped? Sure, I knew you could. Quote
