Jack Hoff

                     A second factor in the consideration of Great Weight Movement is size reduction.  Can the item be REDuced ?   You want the object to be manageable, and if there is NO aesthetic negativity from size reduction, then, by all means, make effort to reduce its size .  OBVIOUSLY this is EASILY applied to trees, limbs, branches etc.,  but when rock or stone is involved, it may be Labor Intense  to  effort reduction and worse, the rock or stone's aesthetic may be jeopardized .   Plus, you MUST have the tools that can effect reduction:  drills, hammers, chisels and the like are ABSOLUTELY necessary when reduction is justifiably warranted, otherwise the move becomes a "grit-your-teeth" aspiration .   

            It took me some time to acquire correct size pipes that could withstand the crush of Great Weight.  I apply them as rollers which minimized turf and ground scarring and facilitate ease of advancement .  Even with these rollers the addition of 3/4 inch plywood is a BEAUTIFUL supplement to encourage influence, but here now the ABJECT NECESSITY of the correct jacks to elevate the rock .   Having the rollers without the jacks is a condition of dysfulfillment*.
