    Oh yeah, the tank is 66+6 x 21 x 24 and the crate is 96 x 33 x 40 so yeah it's 200lb of crate I'm betting.

    Friday is pretty tight. I've got work, and a concert to go to at 8. If we could do it basically right at 5:30, I could help.

    We have settled on a schedule finally.

    The owner and I will be loading the tank onto his truck on Friday around 4 or 4:30. We should be back at his office in Grimes by 5pm. I expect we will need help for about an hour, so from 5 to 6pm.

    Looking back in this thread it looks like xmasia and possibly neonbender, but let me know for sure. What about you brad (bears) and ed (eric)?

    Anyone else have a spare hour on Friday?

    I can help unload on Friday. If you need help loading I would be available at 4:30, just let me know, 4:00 doesn't work for me. Otherwise I will be at the dentist office to help unload at 5:00.

    BIG THANKS to everyone that helped place the tank today, it went pretty much as planned!

    Thanks to:

    Brad / bearsareawesome
    Matt / xmasia
    Paul / pwfish (for showing up RIGHT when we got done!!)
    Matt Platt (owner)
    Mark Platt (owner)
    Andy Grove (owner)

    ...and everyone else who couldn't make it before we got there, but offered to help anyways!!

    Unfortunately, I didn't bring a camera. Paul if you want to, upload the pic you took. I'll probably stop out tomorrow and take a few.

    I'll be posting updates as the build gets completed and the stock is moved back over!
