one step ahead of ya, '59. it doesn't look like much, but all 4 corners are ratcheted down to the saw horses. the width of the saw horses makes them incredibly stable (much more so than i originally thought). i kept them low, so the center of gravity would be a lot safer. it's so low, in fact, that it takes 2 guys to lift the saw horses to roll the frame in and out. i think it's maybe only 8" above the original level. i've also attached the saw horses with longitudinal beams for more stability. a few nites before she was off the frame, but sitting on 2X4 blocks, we had the tail end of that hurricane blast through. i bet i got up 10 times that nite.

where are you with your toaster?
