    I would say you have a set of stones, but apparently not. One failed to drop.

    I live an hour south of Crossville where a lot of stone & rock comes from. I run to the Atlanta area a lot in the fall and spring and I usually see anywhere from 2-6 loads of rock heading south every trip. It doesn't matter if it's 1 trip a week or 4. It's amazing there's such a market for that rock.

    It is the terrible economy, when people spends thousands to have beeg rocks in their yard. lol
    My cousins son builds stone pools and ponds in peoples yards, he will not bid any pool or pond under 350,000, some people will get one of each, and that does not include the landscaping. lol

    Wow these things are fragile. Had some guys been pulling these for the last 2 years show me the proper tension. Which is almost nill. At least the saftey chain was something.

    First ever 12 wide. Only about 30 or so more to go. Home every night once we get the relay going right. Never been more focused in my life. I actually appreciate that it challenged my abilities. This was point to point, we havent got the relay started just yet. All annual permits, couple heavy loads on the books. Not very heavy, but gross 110-120, which is more than ive ever done. Not much to most here granted.

    I'm not doubting you but it's hard to imagine why a front overhang would affect a permit...

    Yeah, I used to just pull my snap binders by hand with no cheater bar. And seen guys break 'em too...
    I had a DOT cop try to tell me I needed securement in the center also, I politely told him we were only allowed to secure the ends...
     
    kylefitzy and FerrissWheel Thank this.
