So...Did you have to come through the window, or did it fit through the front door?

Front door. Small machine. Didn't even need to take off the screen door (PITA, as you know).

Looks pretty awesome in the Florida Room, dontcha think?

Can't wait to put fresh fluorescent tubes in it, it'll light up the whole room at night, and look good from the deck.

Poor Jack needs a new place for his bed...

...and of course one slot is reserved for Sierra Nevada

Good. The last time we talked about it, I was envisioning some type of crane, or perhaps a Sikorsky.

It did take the engine crane. I think those things are typically moved by forklift.

It didn't lend itself easily to being moved (gross understatement).

I guess it's made from "too heavy to steal steel".

I didn't realize that they were that heavy but it makes sense...as far as deterring theft.

Sounds like when we were moving the safe into the house.

Sorry I missed it.

Well, sort of...

Yes, think safe, but larger. Basically, it's made like a fucking safe so people can't break into it, or steal it easily.

Stupid fucking heavy. The compressor is loud as balls too.

I'm glad it's NOT in the living room.

How are cans useless? If you're working around the house or in the garage, cans are the way to go. Bottles just add extra weight and risk of breakage.

The only reason to buy bottles is:
1) So you can stand around in a bar trying to look hip
2) Because the brand you want isn't available in cans
