LeRoy; The way I see it. If 50 TV are involved, and 50 customers, if each makes arrangements to lift their own, or I lift each of the 50 myself. If each customer lifts their own the total weight is divided by 50. If I lift all 50, the load is multiplied by 50. My back will only take multiples of 10 these days. -Ed- Ed Gaidies Tel-Tek Electronics Ontario-Canada Servicing the Consumer Electronic Industry since 1963 teltek3@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of LeRoy Westlund Sent: Wednesday, February 18, 2004 12:11 AM To: techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [TechAssist] Re: A question about moving TV's off of a high shelf.
