Jedd Johnson Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Sounds nasty, but depending on texture, I bet you could lift it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthcarl Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Sounds like a sweet hunk of metal...not unliftably wide even for someone like me with smallish hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big nasty Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 They had another one that was about 5 1/2 inche's to 6'' wide and weighed over 70lb's I decided on other. I did 4 full pull's today put it toke me a while to get seasoned and get the form down but it will give me good work for trying the blob. My wife toke some pic's I will try to post some time I reweighed it 55.8lb.s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and just a note, not sure if you know this but having paint on it makes it A LOT harder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that the shape is a little different but I hope the heavier weight will help make up the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
