HAMOM/house warming - Aug 9-10 (3 Viewers)

[IcutYourCruiser]

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I’m losing my shop space. I have a TON of things to get done and move to my house. Vehicles, engines, tools, parts. I’ve also got a pool deck to take down (where my shop will be built), the Crasin needs to get stripped for any remaining parts and scrapped, and I have a wall in the basement to take down for more vehicle storage. I’ll buy a bunch of beer and food for sat night. Any and all help would be appreciated. There’s plenty of room to camp in the yard, or set up a cot in the basement or anywhere else in the house for that matter. I’m in Greer SC, but I posted here because I spend more time with ONSC than upstate.

I plan to be there.

I may be able to help out. I should have my house and workshop space in Gray Court being built around that time, so I'll be in the area
I'll try to stop by if possible.

We will be there! We can bring the skid loader if you need to tear stuff up or prep for a garage pad?

 

[ceby]

I’ll be there

That’ll be more of a game time decision. I plan on repurposing a lot of the wood from the pool deck, so I don’t want to tear it up. We’ll have to see where things stand when the time comes. I definitely appreciate the offer though, and may still take you up on it. There’s a pile of boulders and large stumps that need to be dealt with at some point.

I’m being dragged to central NY for an in-law family event that weekend. Sounds like fun, right? Right? I wish I could go to this instead but sadly I will likely miss it.

Don’t worry, I’ll have shop opening party when that gets built and we’ll do a little work and have a lot of fun. You’ll be missed at this one though

I plan to be there, i haven't seen most of y'all since GSMTR last year, I'm due for a hangout.

 

[IcutYourCruiser]

Thanks everyone who’s already volunteered to come help. I forgot to mention this. My house is about 10 miles from the shop I’m moving out of, all country roads, easy drive. Trucks, straps, muscle, and maybe a little creative thinking would help. Maybe even an extra trailer. I’ll leave my engine hoist to be one of the last things to help with loading heavy stuff.

Sounds like a party. I’ll bring a trailer.

 

[GLTHFJ60]

I can bring my car hauler trailer. Is a 7k so no (full body) cruisers on it, but it'll haul stuff.

You want us to tear up the pool deck too while we're there? Saving the wood of course. I can bring my demo/carpentry gear.

 

[IcutYourCruiser]

Help on the pool deck would be awesome. Between my trailer and 1 more we should be good. F150, bronco, eclipse, and gonzo still need to be moved. Then there’s engines, transmissions, motorcycles and lots of tools/parts. I’ll be slowly chipping away at the list between now and then. Fortunately I’ve got the lift gate on my tundra, and a winch on my trailer, so that should help

 

[jamesurq]

Damn, Had I known it was gonna be that kinda party..... something something mashed potatoes.. (marking this thread in hopes I can make it out.)

 

[IcutYourCruiser]

For anyone that made it to my last HAMOM, I hired Dave to cook for us again

 

[angerhater]

I hoping to make this, do you know if the pool deck is screwed or nailed together? Have a few pry bars and even more screwguns available.

 

[IcutYourCruiser]

It’s all screws. Some torx, some Philips, some square. It’s been real fun. The guy I bought the house from built it himself, and he was from Honduras. If you’ve seen many South/Central American cruisers, you might have a better idea about what I’m up against lol

 

[Pip Bernadotte]

At least it looks well built ~
Mixed hardware only sucks pulling it apart

Some of the shorter boards towards the inside are only about 3 ft long, but have like 20 screws buried so deep you can hardly find the heads. Like I said, it’s been real fun

 

[Pip Bernadotte]

Haha, fair enough... Good luck with the rest of the disassembly/demolition
