hmmm... plasma cutter, grinder even, hell make the kids saw at it for an hour with a hacksaw instead of grounding them.
ya chains can be real SOB's when they do break, watched a guy in the next town pulling down his old barn frame snap a chain and it whent through the studs of both walls and out the other side. luckily it broke close to his truck or it woulda been chewed up like what flareside_thunder was talkin bout.
