How are you going to move it?
Probably will hire a rigger, as the weather is closing in.
I will touch and see the machine this morning. It is under power, so
checkout will be fairly easy.

At the auction there was a big ex merchant marine named Eric that
approached me about moving the lathe. He wanted $50 to go from Seattle
to Mercer Island with it. He had a flat bed truck. There was a gantry
overhead at the auction. He slid it down boards to get it off the truck
at my place.
Knowing what I now know about how tippy that lathe is, I don't know how
we managed.
I recently called Nelson trucking, and they wanted more to move a
Bridgeport 10 miles than the machine costs.

If you find a cheap rigger, let me know.
