Now this is going to sound like you typing to me, so I am at some Captain Obvious risk here....but the ugly Alzmetall may be taller than the normal column style and might still not slide under the standard 7 foot tall home garage door.
The Ibarmia is about 3 inches too tall for a 7 foot opening....but the obvious part is, you can temporarily remove that motor and put it back once inside. I can't imagine any WT product that would even come close. If MV could be talked down to $4,500...and I suspect they could..that would be a great deal on the Ibarmia.
Two HP? Candy-ass for a serious DP. Alzmetall has to sub for the radials I no longer have.
Anyhoo... the door isn't even 7'. Mere 6' 4", then also loses another 4" ramped within 2' inside of the sill.
Even so, I can only 'count on' 8' once indoors, and but 7' 2" under one beam that bisects the chip & coolant side of the space.
For one, I can just tilt lighter-weight machinery for the transit. Where 'lighter weight' is 2 ton and under. Alzmetall, yes. Most any radial DP, not. On a purpose-built timber cradle, of course. Not 'loose' on bungee-cords and 'hold my beer' hopes.
For TWO, an AB or SJ Alzmetall can have its column shortened by more work at rigging and simple b***y tedium than need of any complex re-engineering. AFAICS, neither AB nor SJ would need that, though.
Guess I have to accept that a Reeves drive run now-and then is less intrusive than a radial sucking up space 24 X 7 X 365 X 10-more-years-here-max (ELSE beyond caring sooner..). so...
Input has been much appreciated. Thanks, all!
