    This is how I hauled my last press break. Mine was 12' tall and around 25,000. They set these on from the top only.

    I also used chains around the legs like he did, but because it was so top heavy I hooked a few more up top into the lift eyes.

    Are those scales in the rigging for balancing?

    That’s how I would’ve chained it along with the ones on the bottom like the shipper wanted

    It's a bit more unnerving when there's no walls. Had to get a jack under, rotate 90 then get another jack to pull it off. The door was 7ft wide and the crates we're 8x5. It was all around terrible, but at least they were light.
