Did you watch the youtube video? Fork lift!
Funny thing is the fork lift operator asked me how I was going to get it off the truck. Just called 3 friends over to help break the crate apart on the bed so only the display was left, and then we just lifted it off!
Salty23 helped.

A lot of people asked via PM's so I'll post this response...
I'm in Vancouver so I'm close to the USA border, hence I can easily order from Bulk Reef Supply, ship it to Point Roberts, WA and pick it up from there. I bought 75% of the plumbing parts during black friday when they had 15% off so they were pretty much the cheapest for cepex union ball valves, spears unions, fittings, pipe, etc.
They were sold out of some unions so the next cheapest place I found was
http://www.completeplumbingsource.com/ The ones from BRS (spears brand) actually have a larger ID though... but still better than sch40.
Locally, I got some fittings from Andrew Sheret Ltd.

Another place is Corix Water Products but they were closed for the holidays so I didn't get anything from them. I did drive by and they have a large location in Richmond!
