After a few days wait the self loading log truck arrived to position the containers. It had a 15,000 lb capacity, but that is when the arm is close to the truck. Therefore it was necessary to move the big one one end at a time (it weighs about 8,500 lbs).
The smaller ones (4800 lbs) could be moved in one swing. Here the last one is being positioned up on top of the two others, where it will be welded in place.
It will then need a support column underneith the corner, so we put in some temporaries with jacks to hold it in the meanwhile.

Hey you guys--For a couple of O.F's, you sure come up with some big scale projects! What are you going to do in your free time? We think you ought to talk to Obama's affordable housing guy and give him a few good (& cheap?) idess! V & J (in Istanbul).
