Scubaguy March 21, 2015 Share March 21, 2015 (edited) I had some friends run and hide after committing to assist. I would like to move this tank from the garage to the basement. Which will be doing down a flight of outside steps and a hard right turn. If you have muscles and free time.. I will buy subway sandwiches and have some cold ones available for after.. I picked up 8 handles from the club this morning and need to return them Monday.. Im in Manassas close to the airport off of Clover Hill Road. PM me if you can swing by ...

Scubaguy March 22, 2015 Author Share March 22, 2015 Have someone take pictures! Good luck! OKAY that went a lot smoother than I thought it would. The club suction cups came in handy for sure! Would highly recommend to anyone moving a tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origami March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 Phew! After we'd talked, I was still worried that you wouldn't be able to get it down the stairs. I'm glad that it went smoothly! See you tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmerek2 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 Was 6 people on the tank overkill or perfect? Where are the suction cups kept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YHSublime March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 Was 6 people on the tank overkill or perfect? Where are the suction cups kept? The cups can be found under the sticky in "member discussion." Here is a link. I've used them 2 times, and I've helped countless folks move tanks with them also, they are really worth the rental price, and they are the higher grade suction cups then the ones you can buy super cheap but have to constantly question if the suction will break and your tank will crash before your eyes.

Scubaguy March 22, 2015 Author Share March 22, 2015 We had all 8 on an eight foot tank and it was perfect. The load was spread evenly across. The stairs were a bit tight to navigate but we took our time... Thanks again! You can lock this thread Tom.. Updates will be on the build thread..
