With that much available floor space you can set up a factory.

I had to flip the delta lathe upside down
[too top heavy]
yesterday and slide it down a long plank
by myself into the huge basement

my lathe tools were found! WTF? :huh:
but they now need
some major restoration :doh: :wall:

as they got buried
in a bad (leaky roof)spot
in the old decrepid BARN...

Kevin your on the short list :o)

just 12 miles for the wife to commute now
instead of 42 miles...ya- hoo
no more 8:00 pm dinners :happy:

i am expecting gas prices to double
to 6 bucks per gallon when
Israel confronts Iran

so...... this is all according to the master plan
i can just walk (limp) to my fishin hole
no car needed (big f-in grin)
yuk yuk yuk..........lol :uhuh:

The Dad Fisherman 04-08-2010 08:26 AM

Your Man Cave is bigger than my house.....:shocked:.....

Charleston 04-08-2010 09:48 AM

If the basement is that big, how big is the house? If I put my lathe is the middle of my front lawn we might be about even. :rotf2:

Breaking "new ground" is always a [[[huge task]]]

But i have farmer neighbors that will disk harrow it for me
then i just have to rebuild the troy built carbuerator :uhuh:
and then i'll be kickin some ass.

i have so much un- packing and organization to do
its incredible...Mind boggling in fact
lots of site work and some clearing to do (downed tree)
But >>>>right now<<<< i am totally wrecked
Black and blue...even broke a finger

i have accumulated so much STUFF over the years.
that the cellar now looks like a ware house LOL

spent the day disassembling a Glass green house
(i am getting a tan already too....like a friggan red neck lol )
that i will re-assemble here to use as the starter (flats) house

and then add to that as needed....in two directions

i have one real nice BLUEberry bush "Paul " that i will dig up
tomorrow and transplant into a big pot for transporting it.
and thanks to you...Professor i am branching into flowers also.

PICTURES .... soon ok.... but SINCE i have many deer tracks near the creek that Fencing and moving them HERE are the top priority.
~
on the plug building side of things i have some SHORT SECTIONS OF un used cedar wooden gutters TREASURE :uhuh:
(think its cedar? )
anyone KNOW? Capesams?:confused:

Because the Auburn Spa people just told me
they need a crane to move the Jacuzzi
and they cannot do it....so now
i am crane hunting.... :wall:

if there's a will there's a WAY, i always say

i'll cut a friggan hole with a chain saw if necessary
i told them... those cheese dips....
~
i'm a Scottish Barbarian thru and thru....
i have built bridges and 50,000 gallon cisterns
Windmills and many other huge projects....

it only weighs 1000 pounds -> a 1/2 ton

I had a crane move mine in, used NE Spas who subcontract out the job. Maybe give them a call and see who they use?

New England Spas-Boston Hot Tubs-Saunas of New England

striperman36 04-09-2010 05:30 PM

30 guys can move one. with the proper motivation.

Raven 04-09-2010 07:09 PM

problem is
 
the stairway off the Deck leads to a slope

instead of the flat ground unfortunately

hence the need for the crane method...

but
i priced materials tonight...

and for 160 clams i can buy enough 3/4 inch plywood
and ten foot 4x4's to build a bridge and make the
transition happen
along with some other timbers i have.

next i'll be pricing a flatbed from Penski that has the
forklift package.... and a 2500 lb lift gate

Raven 04-18-2010 11:01 AM

MISSION ACOMPLISHED
 
Raven to mission Control:

Standby - Huston ...... Jaccuzi 1..... HAS landed -Over :call:
That's one Splash for The Raven Man, a giant leap for mankind-LOL

what a friggan Bear of a JOB: took four guys and a huge diesel pickup,
300 dollars of lumber and materials ,(which i'll re-use elsewhere)

2 1/2 days labor so far with another day or so still
to dissasemble the 16 foot mega ramp i built
and WE saved almost 8 hundred dollars.

PHEW :drool: glad thats DONE :ninja: ... :kewl:

Pete F. 04-18-2010 07:47 PM

stripermaineiac 04-18-2010 08:47 PM

Well just think of all the plugs you can make out of those timbers. With the hot tub you also have a place to hydro test them too. Might even double as a bait well,

Raven 04-18-2010 09:37 PM

re: No PICS
 
i had planned to go back on Sunday after the unit got moved
to take it all apart ..the Ramp i built..... that is...

But the Ole Raven Van went down on Saturday and i'm not
sure when i'll be getting it back now... i have go back and take some more pics.

oh well........

there's more than plenty to do here...that's for sure!

chainsaw work tomorrow to clear a spot to move
a downed tree so i can place my building materials
there and then i am starting a very large container
garden and ordering a truck-load of loam in the mornin :uhuh:

i 'll work the back forty which was a garden
years ago and the loam is 12 inches deep :kewl:
where i dug a test hole
so i just can't wait until i'm rototilling.
