Re: An algebreic calculation for all you mathmeticians.

Well after three weeks of waiting for the dreaded 300 gallon tank to arrive, I set about yesterday to insert the tank into its room. For starters, I went prepared to dismantle the door frame as the given tank diameter was 1/2" wider than the opening. Then there was the primary issue that I had been dreading about having enough height to tilt the tank vertical, once thru the doorway.

Much to my relief, the tank slid snugly through the intact door frame, then tilted to vertical with about a finger's thickness to spare. Now I will get to connecting all the system pieces together and collect my paycheck for the month.:)

Very nice work. This guy obviously has some money to do this for a swimming pool.

Thanks Bruce. As for the 'guy', as of yesterday's mail, he has a fair chunk less than he did previously.:)
