Does a vessel like that come with rigging guidelines? Or is it trade knowledge on max angles and when you need to use a spreader bar?
Best way to go about doing a lift on something like this is get a hold of the manufacturer, they designed it, they will know how the object your lifting is designed to be lifted..

This here is a Novid stainless liquid fertilizer tank 1640, (16' wide, 40' tall) holds 61,000 ish US gallons.

These tanks can be lifted up to a certain weight with regular Rigging at 45° from the engineered lifting points. Anything after that they reccomend spreader bars to lift straight up.

45° lifts put a fair amount of extra stress on your rigging, I prefer 60° or more if I can.

Hope that answeres some questions...

Snochuk was spot on with his reply as well

Dad found an old Vancouver paper. November 10, 1934.

Check out some of the prices.

I'm not sure what the average wage was then. But with todays money, sure seems great.

Imagine buying one of those cars for a couple hundred and hanging onto it?

60 volt cut off saw works good for my patio stone project.

New blade day!
