Note to the members: you will notice that some of the lifting platforms have been repositioned. This is because, due to the drop-heavy cycles we've been getting lately from HQ, some of our neighbors have expressed concern. I don't think anybody here has been dropping excessively, but in the interest of being good neighbors, I thought we should take some action.
Therefore, please relegate any particularly drop-heavy lifts to the rear-most platform. This is positioned in the middle of our poured concrete floor and is the furthest from our basement area - and thus absorbs the impact better. Also, please excuse the displacement of the big orange mats. I'm going to sort out a permanent place for them this week! Thanks a lot!
