OOPS sorry for the lang on one of them.

I did not see it until after I uploaded it and now can't seem to edit it out.

I apologize to anyone it may offend.

Dude...what IS that?

It looks like it weighs a LOT.

JK

It's the column for my Bridgeport Vertical Knee Mill. All assembled it weighs in at a ton. The column was probably in the 6-700 pound range---maybe more? I called the Bridgeport people (now Hardinge) to find out what each piece weighs, and I was told that data doesn't exist.

Surprisingly, the ram&turret was the hardest to move. I think I felt my femur flex as we were going down the stairs!

Holy crap.

I would be scared that my stairs would collapse under that much weight.

How'd you get it down without crushing one of your helpers?

JK

We were scared. The stairs going into the house from the garage were suspect. We ended up using 4X4's to beef things up. We used a heavy-duty furniture dolly, straps and 6 guys to get it downstairs.

Sorry for the thread drift.
