Moving heavy machinery yourself.

[@KendrasEdge757]

When I moved and had my big gun safe moved over I had to hire a locksmith that had a stair climbing dolly as I had steps to get down at the old townhouse and stairs to get up at the new townhouse. Once he got the safe into the house he needed to move it to the middle of the house and That’s EXACTLY how he did it, but without the come-along of course as it wasn’t that heavy. He put a small PVC pipe on one edge and then another on the opposite side and finally a third. He would push, or roll, the safe, until the PVC pipe came out the back and then he’d grab that and move it to the front and repeat the process until it ended up where I wanted my safe. SURPRISING to me, he moved my safe across my townhouse and into the spot I wanted, quicker than he got it up the four steps into my place with the motorized stair-climbing dolly, an excellent invention by the way!! Would never think something as heavy as your Bridgeport would be able to be moved by yourself though, great job!!

Good story, thanks.

Years ago, my neighbor was moving, so he gave me his 10x14 shed. We moved it to my yard by using the same concept with 3 sections of 12ft, heavy duty PVC pipe, just like you said! Recently, I asked my new neighbor if he would help me move it closer to my house using the same method. He said it can't be done! 🤣 Thank you for the video!! And that's OK if you don't want to get rid of the sail boat, Bill. We understand! 😁

Thanks 👍 I'm thinking of moving a large belt sander into my shed.

I've employed that method to move my shed.

Hi Bill, I am a huge fan of the Rock-afire Explosion and am currently working on restoring a full show on my channel. I saw your blog post about how you had worked for Creative Engineering and had a few questions. Do you have an email I could possibly contact you at? Thank you Jack

[@engineershomeworkshop2692]

Jack, Its true, my first engineering job was working for that company. However, I was with the R & D group working on second generation stuff not the show your restoring. Having said that, there may only be 3-4 people that can answer all your questions. . .I'm one of them. Give me a personal contact and I will reply.
