...I'd still drill a few holes thru the crack from inside... To wedge it, I'd think you'd have to drive a chisel into the crack just enough to gap it slightly... The Poles have a name for this, though I can't spell or pronounce it, but it translates roughly to "pissing in the soup".

You're probably right DF. I sure like the sound of letting that Shop Vac do the work though, like 120 said..... Also wondering if that rubber door stop wedge would give a very slight bit of relief if wedged in there? 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. GTC

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.
