John, Is someone hauling the kiosk itself? What are the dimensions of the pieces? Would they fit in a truck bed?

I believe John is hauling the kiosk himself, and will need help to load it Friday night at his place (??? I think), but will let John confirm this.

For a grinder, per John. Seems like high effort/low benefit but I am not sure what he has in mind in all fairness.

You might be able to buy a 1000watt inverter cheaper than the rental fees! When done you'll still have the inverter which will easily run any cappacino maker or blender out there!

Don't grinders run on compressed air? Geez there oughta be some of that available.. I vote the club pays someone back for a CO2 fill, like $15-$20 at Christo's shop, right?

I'll probably be showing up late to the party, can't make it until mid-afternoon Saturday, but I will still try and bring what I can - auger-style posthole diggers etc.

I have a Dynabrade 7" pneumatic grinder and 50 grit sanding discs that I would be willing to lend to the project if I get it back sunday afternoon. Any interest?

I have a pneumatic grinder too, so with John's approval we can go with that.
I have a CO2 bottle or two I can bring for the effort.

Easy button. It's all about easy.

ok - so... WE STILL NEED A GENERATOR IF POSSIBLE. we will kill 2 co2 bottles doing this with a die grinder. I have all the consumables for finish work(I use them for my art work), however I don't have cut off wheels or grinding wheels for die grinders. I would really prefer to bring a 110v generator, or a 2500w inverter if it exists.

Ige and I are loading up friday night in her truck. I will be bringing my 80 with a rear batt for the ready welder. Will need to have another yellow top if we use my batt.

I would like everyone to post up with what they are doing in this thread, like a check in.

I am bringing sledge, grinders, consumables, welding gear, shovel, 5gal water (potable), post level, long level, string level.

Auger, post driver. I can bring two CO2 bottles if that is the only option. Somewhere I have a 1200W inverter never yet used, but that appears to not be big enough.

I will purchase and bring the concrete (9 bags as the minimum).

I will go up early Sat AM and can work until we finish. At this point I plan to head home at the end of the day.

(If there will be wheeling the next day please post up plans... I would like to run Jenny Creek on Sunday with my son since he has to work Sat)

I'm bringing a 55 gal. drum of water. I will be up as early as I can Saturday (probably not before 10am as I have some stuff to do for the wifey Saturday early) and staying until things are finished Sunday. I can bring some shovels, rock bars and sledges too.

Jeanette and I will be bringing the 8 green posts for stabilizing the kiosk up on Saturday morning. Do we need to be able to drive those in before Daniel gets there Saturday afternoon with the "Sex Machine". If so I can swing by and pick it up from him.
