Milling head reinstalled

I put the milling head back on the Interact mill. Slightly exhausted.

What's exhausted, the mill or you? If it's you, whatever for? Didn't you back your pickup into the shop and use the crane to lift and support the head while you installed the nuts and bolts, Ig? ;)

It was a pain in the ass. I used an engine hoist, had to keep legs short, put a counterweight on the back, the head was awkward etc.

OK so add to your list of home "must haves" an over head hoist for lifting heavy stuff. You will also need a selection of straps chains and other rigging stuff to make short work of things.

These are a lot cheaper than back doctors.
