Man, you guys are so helpful. Who'd of thunk? :lmao: :biggrin:
I've heard that if you give them better beer they'll take up residence. Then I'd have to worry about licensing, neutering, and shots. :biggrin:
Plywood sounds like a good idea. I'm thinking that on Monday I'll see if the rental place will drop off a forklift for me to use. I'm a bit worried about using the forklift in this case as with the trailer being so large I won't be able to get very close and will have to use the tips of the forks. The lift may be rated for 5000 lbs but at the "tips" it drops off to maybe < 1000 lbs. On top of that I'll probably have to max out the "height" which would lower that value even more. :bitingnails: Hmmm, maybe a boom truck....
Oh, almost without a doubt I'm going to have to pull the vertical head. Measured the garage door/entrance and it is right at 6'6". Even if I cocked the head at 45 degrees I'm pretty sure it would be more than that. Then when you add a few inches for rollers, plywood, etc. you're heading for a "Laurel and Hardy" type scene. Maybe I should video this whole enterprise for the Comedy Channel....
