Elephant in the room

Finally took it to the Radiators this Saturday. The radiators in the dining area, and the future bathroom needed to come off the wall so that we could work behind them. These old cast iron things weigh about 300 lbs... and we have been avoiding this nasty work for months. Needed to drain the entire system first and then unfasten them with a big-ass pipe wrench. Thanks to my father for the help.



We needed an extra 2 1/2' of leverage on the end of the pipe wrench to get the old galvanized pipe fittings to turn.
