On another note, I think that riser is also there to support the floor, so I think, and I'm interested in what others think, one should provide some form of support across the floor approximately where the front edge of the riser was.
Good thinking. I actually have a nice big metal chisel just for this sort of thing. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Should be able to semi-drill the welds and then use the chisel.

I don't have a sawzall. Someday I should probably invest in one.
