New to Cleveland RC, Looking for help moving a tank on Sunday...

[OrrG]

Hey guys I've been a long time lurker on these forums but this is my first post. I'm in the Army and just got back from Iraq not too long ago and am looking to set up another tank. I got recalled out of the IRR (the Armys way of back-door drafting) and had to tear down and sell my 75 gallon before I left. I was looking into a 90 gallon and came across Bryan's for sale thread. I was wondering if anybody was free on Sunday to help with transporting the tank and possibly helping out with setting it up and getting things going. I have a ton of rubbermaid containers for water but don't have an RO unit yet. I may need to make some more water incase I can't get it all. I live in North Olmsted and the tank is in Akron. I have an SUV and a van I can use which should hold everything. If anyone wants to help out I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Corey

I'll help provided the in laws either don't come or are gone by sunday afternoon. I should know by friday night what the plans are. I'll let you know. I can make water for you if you need as well.

Thanks for the replys guys. I'm going to start pretty early, around 9 or 10. I'll send everybody a pm with my contact info so we can figure out exactly when and where. I'm a little worried about trasfering everything and getting it set up fast enough so stuff doesn't die. I really appreciate the responses. I'll keep everyone updated. Thanks

I have cleared it with the boss so I can help if you need it still. Let me know, also I can make up some water for you too if you need it. Again let me know.

I helped move a 170 -- drove to Michigan an hour the other side of Detroit and picked it up with my cousin who drove from Lebanon, thirty miles north of Cincinnati. We got everything in two vans and headed for his house. By about 1 AM, everything was back in place in his family room, except I still had to drive back to Cleveland.

I remember my cousin saying the seller had told him he'd spent $10,000 on the set up. "Do you think he's right?" he asked me.

"No way," I said, "He's forgetting at least another six or seven thousand he spent."

Corey,
Were you the guy on the bike that won a SC gift card at the last meeting.
If you need help on the N.Olmstead end let me know 216-440-5912.
Once you get setup I have a few frags of stuff C-sea members shared with us I would be happy to give you a piece of.

PM's have been sent to everyone that's interested in helping. We should have a nice size crew to make this run smooth, both in Akron and on my side of town. sbin, that wasn't me at the meeting but thanks for the response, I'll give you a call tomorrow, I could definately use your help with the setup back at my house and the frags would be much appreciated! Thanks everyone for your responses.
