"Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder but nobody wants to lift no heavy ass weights." -Ronnie Coleman
This is the poorman's way to sling heavy iron around. No friends to help? No budget for cranes? No problem! The Egyptians built the pyramids, surely we can get a 5000LBS machine into the shop. Wear you safety squints and watch your toes, this is gonna get sketchy!

    I'm almost half through and there's no truck holding the trailer, just blocks. If it wasn't this guy I'd be getting ready for carnage.

    I love the way you film w/your camera in your back pocket, but why you no show the dismounted bounty procedural 3rd act?

    i have moved a few sheds and some heavy shit in my years ,, i use steel pipe as rollers ,, i would have hooked a strap to the other end of the machine and let her go down the trailer and if you want to go faster use a chain or strap to the truck and drive towards it letting it go down the trailer ,, then you could have used a pulley bolted to the floor and pulled the unit in the garage ..
