A few years ago, I weighed 244 lbs. I put a 4x4 post to hang one end of my hammock. I put 3-1/2 bags of cement in the hole.
I carried 4 80 lb bags quite a distance from the front driveway.
Perhaps that is why I just had back surgery!!!

being medically house bound since Halloween, tv overload, hopping about, I re-discovered a site with some great history:
in section 'omnidirectional speakers

I had a McIntosh AMP, MC2250, 250wpc, 80lbs.
I lifted it out of a low shelf in a tight space, felt a 3rd meniscus tear in my 'bad' knee while lifting.

@clearthinker *L* Well, since I've never weighed over 160, that's a great excuse for never owning a Krell mono...even maneuvering it onto a handtruck would have been an 'inchworm activity' (i.e., "1,2,3 *grunt*, repeated as req'd.).... @elliottbnewcombjr ....which is Precisely why I/we own a Bobcat to move this/that/the other 'round here for our biz.... A big chunk of our 'upstock' is locust logs. At 48.2 lbs.per cu.ft. @ 12% moisture....when we've logs up to 20'... Next amp for this sillie mortal: ...and Yes, there's currently a 4600 on the AG....not affordable at this time, but a 2800 would be a big step up...and I've the 'puter to push either... ...and I'm patient... ;) Heal fast, Elliott...C'ya
