Alright. the sun is shining and I am on my 48 project again.

The old floor boards are out!

I was in the silly hope to 'just' undo the old bed bolts, but that didn't come as hoped, so I used the old fashioned brute force. Starting with the center board, halving it with the good-old Milwaukee skill saw and levering it out. Tricky were the front carriage bolts, but with some patience and wiggling I got all done.
