1st and probibly toughest problem... getting the damn thing into the house and up onto the stand!!!
The only way it will fit through the doorway is with the front starphire facing down!! booo!! My plan so far is to tip it face down onto a piece of foam (similar to what goes under a tank) then the foam on top of a piece of plywood cut to size. I was thinking if i had 2x4's on end boardering the tank screwed to the plywood/foam it would hold the tank in place on it for the ride down the stairs??
sound do-able?

the tank needs to go through the door and straight down the stairs, from there its only a couple feet to the right and that where it'll sit. I was thinking if I nailed a few pre cut 2x4's to the stairs they would help everything slide down the stairs with minimal lifting by everyone. I remember the last 4 steps of the last time we moved the 300 and they were probibly the roughest part, hopefully the 2x4's eliminate this.

thoughts on my master plan??? lol
