I'm thinking of cutting my Wayne615 in three pieces separating the top, middle, and bottom piece with the idea of fabricating pieces to assemble/reassemble all three pieces for ease of transportation and movement. The two cuts and fabricated pieces would all e in the center part hidden.
Do you think this would devalue the pump?

Are you Serious?  Are you trying to stuff it into a Smart Car/Mini Cooper for moving? Disassemble for moving if necessary or have it shipped

I usually use a 14" cutoff saw when I chop my pumps up. Cant beat a Stihl.

Why would you need to ease assemble/reassemble? Are you using the pump for display and need to move it to shows often?

Moving a pump Up Stairs is Easier than moving a King Size [or Calif King] mattress Up Stairs.
Remove outer sheet metal & install Pipe unions to pipe frame legs & piping.

Nope, I store pumps under the trailer & porch in pieces. No worry about earthquakes, got enough under there to keep from falling.
