BIGSHEP Posted March 26, 2020 Author Report Posted March 26, 2020 I got a call at 830 am. Trucking company asked me if they could bring my BB32. I said sure and here are some pictures. My son and I leaped frogged with two 1/2 sheets of plywood. The crate fit through my 48 inch wide gate. 3 Quote
BIGSHEP Posted March 26, 2020 Author Report Posted March 26, 2020 When I got it to the concrete damage I noticed the crate was damaged in two places but inside the grill looked fine. You can see the top of the crate is leaning to the left. Nails were protruding on the right side of the crate inside the plastic. On left side of crate it is leaning rather bad. So I took all the supplies off the top and went to get some breakfast. When I returned and started removing the plastic I noticed the damage you see in this picture. The grill was fine inside. I was nervous but while looking inside I didn’t see any damage to the grill. I did call Dennis. I also thought my ramp was damaged too 3 Quote
BIGSHEP Posted March 26, 2020 Author Report Posted March 26, 2020 I chose to remove the lag bolts. I couldn’t lift the crate off because of the damage on the top of the crate. I thought my ramp was destroyed too. So I removed all the slats and managed to save my KK wood sign. A long story short all is well. 10 Quote

MacKenzie Posted March 26, 2020 Report Posted March 26, 2020 Gorgeous KK, and so fortunate that there was no damage to it. That crate is a mess, good news about the KK sign too. 1 Quote
Pequod Posted March 26, 2020 Report Posted March 26, 2020 Whew, that was touch and go there. So did the ramp work okay? 1 Quote
