Yeah, I disassembled them in the garage and had the pieces all ready to go. I rented an electric stair climbing dolly and waited until the wife went to the mall. I had 3 buddies lined up and we brought everything in through the family room, across the dining room (cracked a couple of tiles) and down the stairs we went. Not to bad til we got to the base of the mill. I think it must have weighed about 900 lbs and I kept waiting for the stairs to collapse but we made it. It sure is nice to go down there on a snowy day and whittle out stuff.
