Nice bonus ,by the way, on that pneumatic draw bar. Of course you'll have to have compressed air "on tap" to use it.
And, what do you mean by " That is NOT going to be fun ".
Just make sure the rental fork lift isn't too tall for you're access opening, The one I rented wouldn't go through my garage doors! I was thankful that I had bought a second hand pallet jack and it served me well moving my machine through the garage and into my shop.
I hope the weather holds for you.

I'll take a closer look at the "regulator" as initially I didn't notice any way to hook up "air" to it or to anywhere else on the "system". I'll put that down to me being half brain-dead. Yeah, that's the ticket.

The rental company just dropped off the "forklift" and it's a doozy. I don't have my camera with me as the mill and it are back home with my truck. My "shop" is here at my office but I rode my motorcycle today as I didn't expect to get the forklift so quickly.

Dang those things are expensive to rent. Maybe if I approach the wife with, "Look how much this costs to rent." she would acquiesce to me getting my own? Not going to hold my breath.

Pics are forthcoming!
