Give it some serious thought first!!

I’ve got three cabs upstairs, including a massive Electrocoin six slot, and I’m now moving house. I’ve zero clue how the bloody hell I’m going to get them downstairs?!? Genuinely!

I won’t be putting them upstairs in the new place! (If I’m allowed to keep them all :()

half attempt number1 failed last night as i needed to move it (centipede)out of the kitchen and as i was passing the stairs when brining it to the arcade room !, got the base up 3 steps ,which when you take in the lenght of the woodie! :fastlove: was just over half way and not too far to go to breach the top step. The rear of the cabs top kept getting caught on the next step and I ran out of energy and leverage manovuering it over these , need something long to go run behind it to stop it catching perhaps :think: tried pulling it up the stairs but had no real good place to grip !on the plus side it was easy to slide it back down and onto its feet :lol:

Watched this yesterday and was a good watch, although I never thought it'ds existence was in doubt as I thought that one in Japan was well documented/ verified not that it matters but a rare thing either way, did have a bit of a chuckle at the fairly small guys cracking open the create to get at the beast, it just the look like none of them ever held a tool in their life.
