Nope, I was the scout, bank, buyer, storage guy and delivery boy. :wow: When Brian told me he was driving a Ford Fusion, I figured there was no way we were going to get that machine in the car. I thought we were going to have a picture to rival a soda machine stuffed into a Ford Thunderbird. :tounge: We tried the trunk and that wasn't going to work, so we folded the back seat down and slowly worked the machine through the door. When we got it into the car, I figured one of the doors was not going to close but we had about an inch or two to spare on each side. And not a speck of dirt on that white shirt! :oops: Pat got there just in time to see us close the doors and take some pictures--perfect timing in my book! :biggrin: 8) :laugh: You can't see it to well in the picture but that machine is about as big of an item that you will get through the back door of a Ford Fusion and about as wide of an item that you will get in and still be able to close the doors. Brian will have to post a picture of the machine and the dimensions. Somehow I did not end up with a picture of it in my files but it is easily 4 feet tall and roughly 2' by 2'. Very cool little machine and it would be a fun one to have fired up for a dinner party so people could grab a cup after dinner. :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: The things we do for this hobby!!!!

You haven't met my Aunt Carol. Title: Re: The things we do for this hobby!!!! Another tight fit!!! Post by: Roadman on April 22, 2012, 11:00:54 am Very neat. I don't know you fit it but you guys did, where there's a will, there's a way. Myself, BC, Curtis, and Steve practically killed ourselves getting the 3 machines in my basement, what we don't do for this hobby!
