Much more than that. The 9x20 Chinese weighs about 100kg (220lb) and the 10x20 Holbrook weighs 750kg (1600lb) In fact, I spent most of the last week making a jacking wheely frame thing to be able to move the Holbrook away from the wall to be able to check the gearbox oil level. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/vHgoSscmDmMq1LRbaEAy7NMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink (the cargo strap was an experiment, I have since made some steel hooks that fit over the bars and engage the hold-down bolt pockets) -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
