26OCT06-THU. Rigging preparations
include a 50 Ton hydraulic "pancake
jack" rented from Lifting Gear Hire
Corporation. With this equipment,
the machine can be elevated to
replace the wood blocking with steel
pipes. The machine will be rolled
out like stone blocks for an Egyptian
pyramid being moved on wood rollers!

the control knobs don't hit!

20OCT06-FRI. After five years of
sitting idle, the IMM is almost
moved out to make way for more
lofty things. The truck driver
decides the IMM was too heavy,
recommending a Landoll Triple
Axle Trailer Instead. So close and
yet so far! Note the IMM just inside
the loading dock door. Would this
be the harbinger of events to come?

Take II: Chaining the Grip-Hoist
machine to the head of the flatbed
trailer. Randolph Bradley's
apartment in the Majestic Stove
Lofts across the street is the upper
left unit, affording a view of the Arch
to the east and Art2Part across the
street to the north.

Hooked to the wire rope of the

The beast begins to emerge!
By 9:00 am, the CRSX truck and
trailer had backed to the Art2Part
loading dock. By 1:00 pm, we were
into detention fees for excess
loading time. By 1:00 am, the
machine was loaded, secured, and
ready to depart. Sometimes, things
go smoothly and according to plan.
This was not one of those times.

26OCT06-THU. Notice that the bed
of the trailer is at an angle to the
building. The I-R 500 Ton rolled out
of the loading dock and into the bed
of the trailer, digging in for a decided
halt. Painstakingly, the machine was
jacked up an 1/8" at a time: as the
machine jacked up, the trailer was
depressing down! Then, there's the
bit about the pancake jack sized
depression in what was previously a
pristine aluminum trailer. Oops! To
compound matters, the steel pipe
used as rollers at the dock end of the
machine deformed under the weight.
Oval rollers don't, as we discovered.
