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. ![Rolling on the floor](http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripertalk/images/smilies/new/rotfl.gif)

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
(think its cedar? )

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?

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

MISSION ACOMPLISHED
Raven to mission Control:
Standby - Huston ...... Jaccuzi 1..... HAS landed -Over
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.

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,

to take it all apart ..the Ramp i built..... that is...
But the Ole Raven Van went down on Saturday and i'm not

there and then i am starting a very large container
garden and ordering a truck-load of loam in the mornin
i 'll work the back forty which was a garden
