Project-Zero: Retrieving the GBS.

Some out-of-order short-form video retrieving the Zero.

Conned a friend with a tuck and trailer to help grab the crate from the warehouse in Oakland, CA. Made a fun afternoon adventure.  Could have had it delivered but picking it up personally only cost $100 in gas, lunch, and parts. Direct-to-home delivery would be about ten times that cost.

The only advice I offer is that warehouse workers don't care if you know what you're doing or not, just have patients and roll with it.

We got the thing back to my place but there are a few things I'd do differently.
  • I should have gotten much beefier ratchet straps for hold-downs.
  • The crate is not exactly balanced, a single axle trailer is not the best choice.
