How much did that baby way/ how did you move it?
Our shop has an Excello (bridgeport clone) that weighed 2600 lbs and we
had to take off the table (over 500 lbs alone) to get the machine
through a 36" door into the tool room.


This is pretty small. Overall weight is around 650 pounds. Took 6
guys, a furniture dolly and some 2 x 4's to get it in the building and
an engine hoist to place it on the table. Its just so awkward to
handle. Smithy placed lift handles on the machine but they are in a
very bad location to use.
