    Re: Black Sand (substrate) Anyone

    well, I'll wait and see when they have it first and then I got to check with Delock to see if he has went and got 30 bags as well, I dont want to be left with a ton of black sand in my warehouse.

    I'll keep you all informed.

      I have a Carivan and with the seats removed, I should be able to cary 1300#
      Of course I have to come from all the way south in TexasCity so if you can find anyone closer I will beg off.

      He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

                I dont have a towing eye on my prius, but apparently it would pull pretty good because of the torque from the electric motor.

                Youd need a 1/2 ton or larger to pull the trailer above.

                        WELL....I started thinking about my options, and I maybe able to use my companies LTL account and pay for the shipping in cash when it was delivered, thereby, my company does not receive a bill, but I am able to utilize their discount. I will go with this plan for now and again as always, keep you all informed.

                        If all goes well, it will be available for distriution by Wednesday next week, I'll sell it for 25.00 like last time here from the warehouse, and I may make one run to the SE part of town for a multi drop off shipment....

                              This sand purchase has been delayed for maybe one week. I'll keep you all posted.

                                CF, do have any update on the sand. I'm interested in switching out the sugar sand to a larger size sand. Thanks for helping everybody out.
