    Default Need a friend with a pick up truck :)

    I need some help and someone with a pick up truck. What I need to do is get the old Bardane signs down and transported to Winchester so the sign folks can refinish them with our logo/info.

    I thought I'd post here to see if anyone with a truck is available. I will cover time and gas, of course. My schedule works best for tomorrow afternoon or Friday afternoon.

    Please let me know if you can help!
    Thanks!
    Brian

    I cannot help, but you can borrow my pickup Sat, Sun, or Mon
    It does have a topper on it - I don't know if this makes it a better or worse option

    Thank you for the offers posted and PM'd!
    Sorry I was not able to coordinate with a couple of you. My schedule was nuts before this new store venture. It is a complete cluster-foxtrot now between trying to keep coffee roasted, orders filled and keep progress being made at the new shop. It's been hard for me to set a time/day to do the sign take down since my schedule can change with every phone call.
    My future brother-in-law was available this morning with his truck and along with the help of a neighbor we got the old sign down and transported to the sign shop for resurfacing.

    It was MUCH more difficult to get the old sign down than I anticipated. Many of the old screws were stripped out and had to be sawzalled from behind. Doggone heavy boards, too! It doesn't look that big or tall when you drive by but each side of the sign is made from 2 sheets of 3/4"x4x8 MDO for a total sign size of 8'x8'. The top of the sign is 13'-14' off the ground. It was a little hairy at moments.
    But it's done and soon there will be a new Black Dog Coffee sign in it's place!
    Thanks!

    I wish I could show you a pic of the floor finish...it's going to look awesome! Unfortunately, I just got word today that the sealer is not arriving until middle of next week because they didn't ship it until the day it was supposed to arrive here (middle of this week). Arrrghh!!!
