[TheForge] RE: Tool Steel

[Dan Scheid]

Well weight is weight and if my little car trailer could take the 8K pounds
in weight your trailer ought to handle it. or rent one if you don't have one
If they have a fork lift getting them on should be simple. getting them off
well that could be tricky
Dan,

Steel is so dense compared to something like a
generator. I moved 10K ona  trailer, that was my TIG
welder, 15Kw generator, my 14 x 40 lathe and bunches
of little stuff. The pile of steel is about two skids
in square shape and maybe 2 feet tall. Much different
density. This is really good stuf!
