Muscles for frags

[allincuddy]

Chin, I would be glad to help out. I know the lay out and it will be a tough move, unless we use the sleigh idea as the stairs are narrow and will only get one person top and one person bottom, and the guy on the botom beter be a gorilla. A sleigh with people pulling from the top would probably be the best idea. Need sleigh, rope, ply and people in my opinion.
Glad to help if needed.

thanks all. I really appreciate the help being offered by all and I will provide an update as time gets closer.

FYI - I have decided to use the sleigh idea because it will permit multiple individuals to assist from the top and bottom. The stairs are ceramic tiles so I will line the plywood bottom with smooth carpet to decrease friction as well as protecting the tiles. I will also strap the tank to the sleigh.

Pokolec - thanks for the offer of your sleigh but I'll build my own because then I can customize it to the exact size of the tank and bring it home with me (i'll need to bring it down 10 stairs when I get home too ) I will reuse the supplies for my stand as well.

Emily - i would love to spend time with some Calgarians but its going to be a dine and dash trip for me.

Ruth - thanks for the comments!!

That's a tall tank. I was feeling sorry for myself not being able to reach the bottom of my 30" tall tank! Thanks man, I'm feeling a lot better about it now!!!

[Pokolec]

are you volunteering? I'll be looking for some close locals because i'm planning to get back into town really early saturday. just need it out of the van and right onto the garage floor. then I need to do some work on the tank before calling for muscles to move it down the stairs in a week or two...... I'll supply free Robaxacet.

OK everyone
I've set the date for Friday April 28. My plans so far is as follows:
0800 hrs- Rent van
0830 - 0900 hrs - Leave Surrey area
1900-2000 hrs - Arrive in Calgary but I will start calling people when I'm about 80-100 km out of town which will be about an hour before I arrive at Cody's (Stinky) house.

I would like about 5 people to help out so I'll be sending PMs to all those who have graciously offered to assist.

Thank you again.
