The Poles have a name for this, though I can't spell or pronounce it, but it translates roughly to "pissing in the soup".

Lot's of good ideas here. Much appreciated.


If you've never tried it, you're going to be AMAZED at how well the shop vac stunt plays out. Dishwashing gloves work really well as the "mask", and good old duct tape as well.

You dont put the doorstop in the crack itself, you push it down in the trigger opening enough to SLIGHTLY open the crack.

Sheesh, a simple tight crack and all the sudden we're into chisels and drills and headless screws.

I was well aware of that Kid, but thanks anyway. I've found this thread very enlightening personally, and am happy to hear various ways to skin a cat.


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
