I am going to be ordering a NM-135 tomorrow to replace my LMS 3501.
My big challenge like a few others here is going to be getting it up the garden steps (see pictures) into my office. My office door is not going to be a problem as it is extra wide.
So my options are going to be to hire some muscle (4 people) to try to lift it up the steps, but I am nervous about doing this due to the constraints imposed by the wall either side of the steps and the potential of damage.
The second option is to break the mill down into 2 or 3 chunks and use a hand truck to get it up the stairs.
If I go this route I will probably buy the 1 ton folding shop crane, 1000 lb movers dolly and a 2 ton lifting sling from Harborfreight and this hand truck http://www.handtrucksrus.com/crashde...ID=249&cx=comp.
Any thoughts/ suggestions from fellow NM-135 users?
Thanks
David
