I actually drove into a public weighbridge on the way to pick up the mill, was going to get a tare weight and then weigh again on the way home so I would know the weight for sure. It was going to cost $36 so I drove out again!
The info I was going on was that it weighs 1200kg, however the same info said it had a 2hp motor so the machine might be a different model to what I thought, I'm waiting to hear back from lathes.co about a book for it so hopefully I'll be able to get all that info.
I'm not in a desperate hurry to get it off the trailer, was good to be able to take it outside to wash the foot down and blow the chips off yesterday, I have an area below the shed where I can make that kind of mess. I'll take it outside to clean out the sump too, it's like the septic tank at a leprosarium in there, I'm thinking I might dig a hole to drain it into then rinse it out with the hose, can clean the trailer off after the machine is unloaded.
I need to make some progress on my furnace, want to get the refractory poured next week so it can cure while I do other stuff.
Anyway will get some photos of lifting options today and see what you guys think.
