Project:: Hot Tub
by Nathan on Jul.06, 2009, under my projects, regular day BS
Finally my patience of waiting for a free or super cheap hot tub paid off. The best part of this is how it got moved and placed on to my deck. Six dollars sayz my neighbors think I am crazy…read on..?
After digging out 80 loads of a dirt hillside and making more room for a few trailers at a trailer park we found a hot tub in one of the neighbors backyards hidden in the back. After inquiring, the owner wished to get rid of the tub for a few hundred bucks. So……… game on.
Here is a shitty video shot with my blackberry of lifting the tub onto the trailer….
Hot tub at my house on a dump trailer
Tools to get it off the trailer
This was the longest part after I figured a way to unload it by myself. Getting the spare tire off the trailer so the tub wouldn't catch on it...
Test Dump to check my angles. (tub still strapped)
The rig for the tilt and dump of the tub.
Off the trailer and just need to pull the truck ahead.
Bam. I placed all the 2x4's on the ground so I can push it into place on my own.
Boom, Still have to hook up and make sure I didn't crack the freakin thing.
