Sounds good, and I don't blame you on the welding part, got to make sure it's done right. That's a lot of weight to hold up. Don't know what I can do, but let me know if you need help.
It's usually around 1PM, every time I have went I got there at 1, there were always a few people already and some also came in after. So if you come in around 1 PM you will see a bunch already there.
