June 13, 2010 - Back Wall Finally Achieved! June 13, 2010 [AFTER] - Back Wall Finally Achieved! After approximately 3 months of hard work, the back wall of the garage is finally visible. Note the absence of historic cast iron stove. It used to be in the center of the picture under the black circle, which is actually a rusted nub of stovepipe sticking out of the 2-story chimney.
May 9 - Back Wall Sighted May 9 [BEFORE] - Back Wall Sighted The back wall is behind the old wood stove, which is not even visible in this picture. See the black thing hanging out of the wall just to the left of the window? That's the rusted remains of the stove pipe emerging from the chimney. The stove is direclty under that. Trust me, it's there.
June 13, 2010 - Metal Man hits jackpot June 13, 2010 - Metal Man hits jackpot Here's the stove, finally extricated from the garage and ignominiously chucked into the alley for Metal Man to pick up. Counting the auxiliary pieces piled to the side, this must be at least 75 pounds of solid iron. We put it out on Sunday night. It was still there Monday night, but gone by Tuesday morning. It amazes me how quiet and discreet Metal Man is. The Minneapolis recycling truck makes more noise than a Transformer battle. But Metal Man slips in on little cat feet and makes all our unwanted metal quietly disappear.

Your property seems... lighter. It may be creating an imbalance in the Earth's mantle. 'Ware earthquakes.

Congrats on wall-reachment!
We could use a metal man around this neighborhood.

Are you sure you don't have one?

No; I'm not, come to think of it. I've never put metal out other than on recycling day.
