A huge Thank You to Chris S, Chris P, Bryan, and Mitch for giving up the better part of a Saturday to help me out.

Another Thank You to Sheryl for putting together some chow & cold drinks for us.

The lift move went off (really) without a hitch. We did eventually wind up on "Plan Revision 4.5", after exploring/trying the options. Maybe a pinched finger, but no-one got hurt, and no damage to the lift or either garage. Success!

What it came down to was removing the "Ladder Lock" nuts, the Cable retention nuts, and removing the top-plates of the posts. With this done we could Squeeeeek the posts (lifting just a touch/taking the weight) with a floor jack) under the overhead door frame/weatherstrip on plastic sheet sliders. Then a careful slow-dance up the ramps and onto the trailer. Rinse & Repeat on the other end at the 40 Watt Garage.

After the crew got it reassembled in the 40 Watt and "close" they hit the road, and I spent the next several hours doing the setup leveling and cable adjustments.

This has been a long overdue addition to the shop, and it couldn't have happened without the help of the Northstar family.

That's NOT a toy, it's a needed tool.

Looks right at home in there and now you know the procedure for the "next" time.
