    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Probably about 250-300 Kilos. Needed 2 people to stand it up.

    Ask Jim.

    I thought gravity would help when pushing them of the ute but it needed me and young Lee to stand them upright.

    Impressive . I was worried about my 3HP lathe possibly being under powered with large stuff. I haven't tried it out yet.
