How heavy is a wooden box? How many beer do I have to buy if I need 2 beer per person (adults only)? for payment for helping me lift it off the frame?

Depends on how many people there are. If I'm the only one helpin, you're gunna have to supply me with lots!!!!

Assuming you will also partake in the consumption, you should be able to get by with buying a 12 pack and having 4 left over beers. I would be happy to come and take them off your hands though.

Sounds like a fun math problem to me.

WORNBRAKES · 09-10-2002, 04:03 PM

If it was unbolted when they showed up, I would say a 12 pack. Now if they had to watch you unbolt it you may need a case or two depending on the extent of the corrosion on the bolts.

OhioDan · 09-10-2002, 05:54 PM

We figured that out when I was in the service. 4 men X 4 beers each= 3 cases. Just my $.02

if it is a junk bed, just unbolt it and push it off into the yard.

Then you can drink all the beer yourself.

Not that I don't like drinking with friend's but I like Andy's idea , after all it's football season I need all that beer.

Umm guys don't forget he's in CANADA!

I'd double or triple the above amounts.

Jwill41 · 09-11-2002, 09:23 AM

you go toms68cst. LOL.

buttons_rt · 09-11-2002, 12:25 PM

Try cutting all the amounts in half...we drink beer up here not yellow water...

devinfife · 09-11-2002, 01:14 PM

hahaha about all the beer jokes. canadians crack me up.

WB72 · 09-11-2002, 05:10 PM

Why cut the amounts in half? We can still drink the same as the US boys, ours just has alcohol in our beer.

4 guys are enough? I guess no party tonight.

I brought my truck to work, took the bolts out, Played with the wiring for about 2 hours, got to the end of the line, and there was a plug to disconect the wiring from the frame to the box. Man am I dumb, Oh well, I know it for next time now.

I used my forklift on the back end, used two guys on either side on the front, I drove the truck out of the way, and then set the front edn of the box on a drum.

Thanks for your help guys, but since it was at work I had to buy ZERO beer.

>X< · 09-11-2002, 07:53 PM

if yall were doing this work in the south i would say buy 4 fifts of Jack D or Southern Comfort, to get the 4 guys started, then a 12 pack for each

, but i'm only 17 what do i know

Huck · 09-12-2002, 08:16 AM

YOU ALL LEFT OUT ONE REALLY IMPORTANT THING ~~~~~DO NOT, AND I REPEAT, DO NOT PROVIDE THE BEERS UNTIL THE BED IS LIFTED OFF AND PLACED WHER YOU WANT IT!! I made the mistake to provide a case of beer for my buddies when we were moving one time. Unfortunately, I gave them access to the beer before and during the move~~~~BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!Huck
