Re: Pit design

Ah, good thoughts so far. One thought I have is that many pits, including ours, have electrical systems to some extent; ie. a few lights, outlets, and extension cord or reel. Perhaps these systems could be redesigned for more efficiency or safety. Also, we transport ours by truck, and it takes about 8 people to lift, which is too many in my mind. Anyone else have similar experiences?
