Well it looks like I'm still shopping for a 5 ton. I looked this one near Clint and it's rough. It isn't a 814 like I thought, but some hacked up framed jobber. I offered him 1500, but he declined. It honestly needs more work than I want to put in one.

That's too bad. And I thought you might get a chance to try out that new hoist.

Well, it's all for naught, as I can not get from work this weekend. We are under an extreme deadline and if I proclaim my freedom, I will more likely than not get introduced to the unemployment line.

Next Sunday?

Yes, I have an engine hoist and an a-frame hoist; although the a-frame needs to be assembled (the cross bar is too heavy for me alone).

You guys wanna cook out? Maybe GoldComet6 could come up here too.

That crowd is going to need some adult supervision.....I hope Dawn is at Clinto's LZ.
I am an adult-I supervise things all the time.
