Alan Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Try your local glass repair company. I have borrowed then over a weekend from our local one. Or a hire centre? What size tank are you moving?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malawiman Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Thanks Alan. Tried hire centre, no luck. It's a 8 foot tank. Will try the glass shop. Have to move all my tanks and fish. Got some set up at my new house, now the fun part of moving the rest. Only 10 more to do. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 A helpful hint to how to improve the safety and well-being of your helpers. Get some old safety belts from down at the wreckers. These make great lifting and carrying aids, especially where their is a risk of hands slipping off the edges when carrying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrie Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Pity you wernt in Auckland I have about 8 of them when useing "Josters" never leave them face (cup) side down. Make sure that you clean the glass well and try them first. Alans idea of the webbing "strops" is better than josters and easier to use provided you all talk to one another and lift evenly.

malawiman Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Thanks, I got some at the local glass people, but will get strapping aswell. Might make it easier combining and using both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
