Last week my new diesel tank arrived. It arrived strapped to a wooden
pallet. The two young guys set it down on one end by my barn and
departed, so I was able to screw the legs in. But then I had to
muscle it over in position closer to the barn and get it up on the
blocks... darn thing is heavy and clumsy, but this old guy managed by
himself... give me a lever and a fulcrum and I can move the planet...
I used an 8' 2" x 4" to jockey it into position, lined it up and
flopped it onto the blocks, then was easy to level. Today I picked up
all the fittings at the local hardware store in town... that's where I
bought the blocks last week, four large blocks, 16" X 8" X 5" thick
for $6, for all... not fancy but strong. It took me all morning to
attach all the fittings... here it is ready to be filled:

out for each other:
