These days I usually just use the splitsaw to carve out most of the panels from the inner structure rather than vaporize the connecting beams, but the principle is the same, yeah.

If you're aiming for speed then either chucking the entire thing into the processor (and losing out on the furnace materials) or splitsawing is the way to go, if you're going for 100% salvage and those delicious mini-me stickers then the beam method you show here is superior.
