[AT] Off Topic Goulds piston pump

Tue Jun 5 15:48:10 PDT 2012

Well that was the big thing I was trying to figure out Bo.  I'm not in a 
hurry for it but the going to the show relay trick probably would never work 
out so I don't know.
I wonder what it weighs and what the shipping cost would be.  I don't know 
if it's light enough to go UPS.  It might have to go motor freight.
I appreciate the offer but I need to find some way to compensate you for it. 
I'll of course pay the shipping but we need to do something beyond that some 
way.
Let me weigh the one I have.  It's only missing a couple of pounds worth of 
parts.  Once I get the weight and measurements we can figure out the 
shipping.
If you like reply to me off list here and we'll work it out.

Charlie , at this time , I consider it yours . Now the only problem is
getting it to you . I could make a small shipping palette to mount it on
and hope it arrives in one piece . What are your suggestions ???
