Take a friend too. Nothing like muscling those things around alone and trying to get them to go the direction you want, even on tires.......

Add lockers and they get even harder to manuever around by yourself on a hard surface.

No way they are that heavy. You old timers might remember a few years ago when I dropped the d60 I was rebuilding off my bench onto my right leg & lifted it back up.
Wait, maybe I'm just a bad mamba jamba!!


Nah.

The next time I'm in Lansing I'm coming over to watch you lift a complete D60 back on to a bench by yourself

lol Sorry I just re-read that and I didn't say it right. I had the D60 up on stands on my workbench and while rotating it one end fell off and landed on my thigh - OUCH! Come to think of it I might have been talking to 40grit on the cell phone (speaker) when that happened. I put that end back up on the bench - not on the stand mind you, but back up on the bench. I didn't go back out to the garage for a week I hurt so bad! Left a permanent dent in my leg too
