I had to use my floor jack to get the head up high enough to pick it up. There was no way I could get my hands around it and into my lifting power zone when it was on the floor. Like you said, dumb.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-30-2007 06:30 PM                     Josh... Congrats on getting the DP-70s! You now own the finest mechanical projector ever made . Keep the second... you may need the parts or perhaps completeing it would not be all that hard... let me know whats missing... Are yours single or two motor machines? Whats missing on the second machine? Any pictures? I've moved em by myself before too but not down any large number of stairs. DOwn a few steps and into the back of a truck that had a lift gate. Its not all that bad with a heavy duty refregerator dolly... going down those wood stairs though . You feel a big accomplishment after the move is done. Also, what theater are they out of?
